By January 1, 2023, insurers are expected to significantly change their accounting models, transitioning to follow International Financial Reporting Standards 17 (IFRS 17) and the FASB’s Targeted Improvements for Long-Duration Contracts (LDTI) requirements. Insurers face complex challenges to operationalize this fundamental change and navigate the multitude of issues.
Our professionals have collaborated across accounting, actuarial, finance, and technology disciplines to provide practical insights and tools here on the Insurance Accounting Change Hub to help insurers through this accounting change transition.
