1 April 2020

Your essential briefing of the morning's top news stories.

Good morning, Hilde Oesterkloeft here to get you up-to-speed on this morning's news from ICAS and around the world.

The latest from ICAS

Voting on the ICAS elections opened today, with all members encouraged to get involved, make their selections and help to shape the future of ICAS.

An educational document has been published on the ifrs.org website that seeks to respond to questions regarding the application of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments during the COVID-19 outbreak. Anne Adrain reports.

The spread of COVID-19 continues to escalate across the UK and this has led to the introduction of mobility restrictions. These will obviously have major implications for many businesses and indeed for auditors. ICAS has issued updated guidance for auditors on attendance at stocktakes during the coronavirus outbreak.
