Common Disclosure Mistakes

Overview

Getting things right in the context of Simplified Disclosures

Perhaps in the past, disclosure mistakes may not have been afforded the level of significance they deserved. But with the move to Simplified Disclosures, entities must ensure that their disclosures are both accurate and complete – particularly those transitioning from special purpose financial statements.

This session identifies common disclosure mistakes seen in practice among entities preparing general purpose financial statements. Practical examples will be used to explain the common errors and why they don’t meet the applicable disclosure requirements. 

We will also provide tips on how you can make the disclosure process easier when preparing general purpose financial statements, especially for the first time.

Learning Outcomes:

Identify key errors and potential solutions to facilitate preparation of compliant disclosures.
