IFRS 9 Financial instruments: External resources

CPA Canada has compiled an inventory of useful external resources to help you understand and apply IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.

International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 9 Financial Instruments sets out the requirements for recognizing and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy or sell non-financial items.

IFRS 9 replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018.

We have compiled an inventory of external resources to help you understand and apply IFRS 9.

These resources were created by external organizations and were not reviewed, developed or approved by Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada (CPA Canada). CPA Canada accepts no responsibility or liability that might occur directly or indirectly as a consequence of the use, application or reliance on these resources.
