Financial Instruments accounting continues to respond and adapt to the changing circumstances of the global economy, including the effects of market uncertainties as well as issues that affect corporates and banks alike such as interest benchmark reform.
Practical issues usually arise in many areas in association with financial instruments and derivatives, which are generally related to measuring and accounting for derivatives and hedge accounting, as well as disclosures and necessary calculations for financial instruments.
