Australia's financial reporting landscape continues to evolve as organisations navigate economic uncertainty, changing regulatory expectations and new reporting requirements.

In this Financial Reporting & Governance Update, Wayne Basford, a leading Financial Technical Expert and Managing Director of Basford Consulting, provides practical insights into the key financial reporting, accounting and regulatory developments affecting Australian organisations.

In this session, Wayne covers:

  • The current economic climate, including insolvency trends, inflationary pressures and the implications for financial reporting.
  • ASIC's regulatory focus areas and common financial reporting issues identified through surveillance activities.
  • IFRS 18, a significant change to financial statement presentation and why organisations should begin preparing now.
  • Sustainability reporting developments and the implications of recent threshold changes.
  • Common financial reporting challenges, including share-based payments, business combinations, fair value classifications, SaaS costs and lease modifications.

The session provides practical guidance for directors, CFOs, accountants, finance professionals and business leaders responsible for financial reporting, governance and regulatory compliance.
