The IASB has published an Exposure Draft Amendments to IFRS 17 to address concerns and implementation challenges identified following the publication of IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts in 2017. The publication of the Exposure Draft follows an assessment of 25 concerns, identified during the IASB's meeting in October 2018, of areas of the standard that global stakeholders recommended to the IASB for potential improvement. Following its assessment, the IASB has proposed a number of targeted amendments, including a one-year deferral of the IFRS 17 effective date to 1 January 2022.

Francesco Nagari, Deloitte's Global IFRS Insurance Leader and Sue Lloyd, Vice Chair of the IASB, discussed the Exposure Draft, 'Amendments to IFRS 17' in our webcast on 8 July. Watch the webcast for a summary of the key highlights and outcomes.
