Webinar IFRS 18: Time To Act – Key Updates and Implementation Experience

On Tuesday, May 19, 2026, KPMG will host the Webinar IFRS 18: Time To Act – Key Updates and Implementation Experience. In this webinar, we will expand on our initial IFRS 18 session, providing you an update on recent developments related to IFRS 18, including the latest IFRIC discussions and areas where interpretation continues to evolve. You will gain insights from practical observations and emerging market themes when implementing the new Accounting Standard.

This event aims to inform Chief Financial Officers, Financial Controllers, Managers Financial Accounting & Reporting, Finance Directors and other stakeholders. This webinar is intended for all industries and does not address sector‑specific topics. 

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements brings significant changes to how companies present their income statement and what information they need to disclose. It also makes certain ‘non-GAAP’ measures part of their audited financial statements for the first time.

As IFRS 18 becomes effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027—and with 2026 comparatives required—companies must act now. The timeline is rapidly approaching, and advance preparation is essential to ensure that relevant data is available and reporting, systems and processes are ready for the new requirements.

Key takeaways of this online session:

·         What are the most recent IFRS 18 developments?

·         What are the areas where interpretation of IFRS 18 continues to

          evolve?

·         What practical observations and emerging themes do we notice?

·         What immediate implementation actions are needed?
