IFRS Literacy: Understanding the New Financial Statements

New rules for financial statement users

With the transition to International Financial Reporting Standards in Canada, accountants, financial analysts and advisors, corporate finance professionals, institutional and individual investors and other financial statement users will need to re-educate themselves in understanding and interpreting financial statements issued by public companies.

Under IFRS traditional performance measures such as key financial ratios or income measures have the potential to change simply due to changes in accounting figures. In the UK for example, when their transition to IFRS occurred, some companies went from a profit to a loss position and vice versa, simply due to changes in accounting rules, rather than performance.

Description and explanation of how financial statements will change under IFRS

IFRS Literacy: Understanding the New Financial Statements provides a description and explanation of how financial statements will change under IFRS, along with valuable expert analysis and insight into true financial statement literacy in the post-IFRS transition market. The content of this work focuses on practical application and analysis of IFRS-based statements, drawing upon actual examples from both the Canadian and international financial markets. In its electronic subscription format, this content is updatable and fully searchable.

IFRS Impact highlights key differences under previous Canadian GAAP

Each chapter includes highlighted comments on the impact of IFRS on particular financial statement items. This commentary feature highlights key differences of financial statements prepared under IFRS from those issued under previous Canadian GAAP, noting common changes in accounting policies, amounts, disclosures and presentation. Extracts from published financial statements illustrate these differences.

Unique Canadian perspective for Canadian readers

IFRS Literacy: Understanding the New Financial Statements provides a unique Canadian perspective for Canadian readers, and is designed to appeal to a broad cross-section of financial statement users, including accountants, financial analysts and advisors, corporate finance professionals, and institutional and individual investors.

Topical coverage includes:

  • Basic Building Blocks of Financial Statements
  • Values and Limitations of Key Performance Ratios
  • Assessing Risk and Measurement Uncertainties
  • Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A)
  • Identifying "good" companies and fairly-priced stocks
  • Specific impacts of transition to IFRS

    Disability Insurance and Other Living Benefits, 3rd Edition

    The 1990’s witnessed the end of job creation in the sectors that historically purchased disability insurance. A new era has begun: roughly 1 million contract workers have emerged. They are found in almost all industries and occupations. As diverse as the general public – there is an equal number of men and women, many highly educated, others not, with wide-ranging earnings levels and all in need of disability and other healthcare benefits.

    Insurers have responded by unbundling disability insurance and expanding their offerings to include critical illness, health, drug, dental, travel, and other classless, non- income based products.

    The author, Jacqueline Figas, looks at disability insurance and other living benefits in the context of the realities faced in today’s challenging work and lifestyle environment.

    Included in this edition:

    • Health benefits planning for pre and post-retirement years
    • Traditional products and coverage for specialized markets
    • Insuring “temps” and “independent contractors”
    • Critical illness insurance
    • Private health and dental insurance
    • Checklists, charts and other planning tools

    Jacqueline is a benefits consultant through her company, Health Assured Financial Group, and has over 30 years of experience in health benefits. She is a noted speaker and author on seniors’ issues and benefits planning for an aging clientele.

    She is a Chartered Life Underwriter, a Registered Health Underwriter, and an Elder Planning Counselor, and is on the faculty of Seneca College where she educates on a range of aging issues including both health and social aspects of aging.

    She is the author of the Long Term Care Insurance training module produced by ADVOCIS under their Registered Health Underwriter (RHU) Designation Program. Her published works through CCH Canadian Limited include “The Aging Client and Long-Term Care Issues” and “Disability Insurance and Other Living Benefits”.

    Confidentiality in International Commercial Arbitration

    Published: June 2011


    Confidentiality in International Commercial Arbitration deciphers the current degree of confidentiality in international commercial arbitration as reflected by the most important arbitration rules, national laws, other arbitration-related enactments, and practices of arbitral tribunals and domestic courts globally. Drawing on this data and analysis, the author then sets forth criteria to assess the breach of confidentiality in international arbitration and the proper rules for protecting or sanctioning such breaches.

    What do we understand by confidentiality in arbitration? What are its limitations? Who is bound to observe it? How can we quantify its breach? In addressing these questions, the book engages such issues as the following:

    • Reasons for disclosure – e.g., for the establishment of a defence, for the enforcement of rights, in the public interest or in the interests of justice
    • Disclosure by consent, express or implied
    • Circumstances triggering statutory obligation of disclosure
    • Recent trends towards greater transparency in investor-State arbitration
    • Court measures in support of arbitral confidentiality such as award of damages for breach of confidentiality
    • Categories of persons bound by confidentiality, including third parties such as witnesses and experts

    Structured along the main stages of the arbitral process, the analysis covers the duty of confidentiality from the initiation of arbitral proceedings through their unfolding to the issuance of the award and after. The scope of confidentiality is reviewed in the practice of arbitral tribunals and domestic courts, and from the perspective of international arbitration institutions, with detailed attention to various arbitration rules and numerous significant cases.

    In its elucidation of the amount of confidentiality that ‘veils’ each phase of the arbitral process, and its ground-breaking identification of ‘patterns of disclosure’, this book is sure to raise awareness about the various facets and problems posed by confidentiality in arbitration. Although its scholarly contribution to the law of international commercial arbitration cannot be gainsaid, corporate counsel worldwide will quickly prize its more practical value.

    Arbitrability: International and Comparative Perspectives

    Published: March 2009


    It often seems today that no dispute is barred from resolution by arbitration. Even the fundamental question of whether a dispute falls under the exclusive jurisdiction of a judicial body may itself be arbitrable. Arbitrability is thus an elusive concept; yet a systematic study of it, as this book shows, yields innumerable guidelines and insights that are of substantial value to arbitral practice.

    Although Arbitrability: International and Comparative Perspectives takes the form of a collection of essays, it is designed as a comprehensive commentary on practical issues that emerge from the idea of arbitrability. Fifteen leading academics and practitioners from Europe and the United States each explore different facets of arbitrability always with a perspective open to international developments and comparative evaluation of standards.

    The presentation falls into two parts: in the first the focus is on the general features of arbitrability, its rationale and the laws applicable to it. In the second, arbitrability is specifically examined in the context of administrative, criminal, corporate, IP, financial, commercial, and criminal law.

    This book has its origins in an International Conference on Arbitrability held at Athens in September 2005. Seven papers presented there are here reviewed and updated, and nine others are added.

    The subject of the book – arbitrability – is one that is much talked about, but seldom if ever given the in-depth treatment presented here. Arbitrators and other practitioners in the field will welcome the way the analysis moves logically from theory to practice regarding every issue, and academics will recognize a definitive treatment of arbitrability as understood and applied in the settlement of disputes today.
