IFRS ("IFRS ):

IFRS () introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. Under IFRS (), financial assets are classified and measured based on the business model in which they are held and the characteristics of their contractual cash flows. The standard introduces additional changes relating to financial liabilities and also amends the impairment model by introducing a new ‘expected credit loss’ model for calculating impairment. IFRS () also includes a new general hedge accounting standard which aligns hedge accounting more closely with risk management. The adoption of this policy did have a material impact on the financial results as its financial assets are primarily cash and cash equivalents and highly liquid investments, and the Company does enter into any hedging activities.
