In July 2021 the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) published its Exposure Draft Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures.
In April 2022 the IASB discussed the feedback on its Exposure Draft; and in June 2022 the IASB decided how it would redeliberate the proposals set out in its Exposure Draft to develop a new IFRS Accounting Standard.
In July 2023, following completion of redeliberations of the proposals in the Exposure Draft, the IASB confirmed it was satisfied that applicable due process requirements have been complied with and sufficient consultation and analysis were undertaken to begin the process for balloting the Standard. The IASB expects to publish the new Standard in the first half of 2024.
The IASB met on 26 July 2023 to discuss the prospective IFRS Accounting Standard Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures.
