IPSAS 41 Financial Instruments Workshop (2 Days)

The adoption of IPSAS 41 has introduced significant challenges across the public sector, particularly in applying the expected credit loss model.  As a result, many organisations struggle to implement the standard effectively. They face persistent issues in financial asset classification, impairment modelling, measurement, de-recognition, and hedge accounting. Consequently, these challenges often lead to inconsistencies between reported figures and the underlying substance. WE have designed the IPSAS 41 Financial Instruments Training courses to address those technical issues.

For those that have implemented IPSAS 41, conducting a post-implementation review is now essential. In particular, many public sector entities must reassess their impairment models by applying more sophisticated qualitative models and calibrating them using relevant and current economic scenarios. Meanwhile, organisations yet to implement IPSAS 41 can draw valuable lessons from the early adopters’ experiences and evolving challenges. Notably, common issues around impairment modelling, classification, and system alignment have revealed critical practical considerations. The IPSAS 41 Financial Instruments Training explores these aspects in depth, helping organisations anticipate obstacles and prepare more robust, standards-aligned accounting frameworks.

The IPSAS 41 Financial Instruments Training provides the technical guidance needed to strengthen financial reporting, enhance disclosures, and deepen strategic understanding of the standard’s impact.  Specifically, it covers classification, expected credit loss models, measurement techniques, and hedge accounting. Led by technical experts, the course supports both new adopters and those seeking to improve existing implementations. As a result, participants leave equipped to meet IPSASB standards with precision and accountability.
