ISCA Comments on IASB’s ED Contracts for Renewable Electricity (Proposed amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7)
07 Aug 2024
Entities are increasingly entering into power purchase agreements (PPAs) for renewable electricity to meet sustainability commitments. However, the unpredictable nature of renewable energy production results in no direct link between the seller's production and buyer's needs at the time of production. This poses challenges for entities applying the 'own-use' exception in IFRS 9 and hedge accounting to such PPAs. The IASB sought to address these challenges in this ED, as well as to require entities to disclose effects of such PPAs on their financial performance.

ISCA Comments on IASB’s ED Business Combinations – Disclosures, Goodwill and Impairment (Proposed amendments to IFRS 3 and IAS 36)
16 Jul 2024
We support IASB’s efforts to improve the information companies disclose about acquisitions to meet investors’ needs and reduce the complexity of the impairment test. However, we have received feedback on challenges faced in the practical application of the proposed disclosures for acquisitions. Hence, we propose IASB to provide further clarifications or guidance to ensure consistency in practice.
