If yes, what are the changes?
SFRS is aligned with currently effective IFRS except as follows:
• The following effective IFRS is yet to be adopted as SFRS: IFRIC 2 Members’
Shares in Co-operative Entities and Similar Instruments. This does not
affect Singapore-incorporated companies (both listed and non-listed).
• Some changes have been made to the exemptions from presenting
consolidated financial statements and applying the equity method to
investments in associates and joint ventures as compared to IFRS 10
Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates
and Joint Ventures. This does not affect listed Singapore-incorporated
companies.
• Additional guidance has been issued in the form of an Accompanying Note
to the SFRS equivalent of IFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real
Estate to guide the accounting for a specific type of agreement in
Singapore. This guidance is intended to be consistent with the
requirements of IFRIC 15.
• Several modifications have been made to the transition provisions and
effective dates of IFRS. The majority of those modifications date back to
before 2005.
