IFRS 17: Action vs. Reaction

Red Alert: IFRS 17 is right around the corner!

Toronto, ON (Sept. 11, 2017) – The impact from IFRS 17 will be felt across the finance function and may require changes to both strategic financial management processes and the finance operating model.

It’s important to take into consideration that the entire financial systems’ architecture will be impacted: operational systems, actuarial models, general ledgers, consolidation and performance management systems will change to support the new measurements, presentation and disclosure requirements in IFRS 17. That’s why it is crucial to recycle the common information when already available in the existing systems and to ensure qualitative and quantitative disclosures.

The new reporting requirements will need the performance management and KPI framework adjusted. Currently, the key metrics are based on volume, revenue and profitability, while the new standard will impact the entire performance management process.

Also to be taken into account is the ability for data to be posted back to source systems as adjustments (e.g adjustments posted back to ledger and sub-ledger).
