New on the Horizon: Insurance contracts 

This edition of New on the Horizon analyses the proposals in the IASB’s exposure draft on insurance contracts.
The potential changes include a new IFRS accounting model that could bring international consistency to insurance accounting practices. The proposals introduce a fulfilment-based measurement model for insurance contracts. These proposals are expected to have a huge impact on the insurance industry, so we explain them in more detail and give a high-level overview of some expected significant changes to current practice if they are finalised as a new IFRS.
