We use an interactive model to explain how interest rates determine the reported results of insurance companies. The il...| The Footnotes Analyst
Investors are paying increased attention to risks and opportunities arising from sustainability related issues, particularly the effects of climate change and related ‘net-zero’ commitments made by many companies.

Cash flow is nev...| The Footnotes Analyst

Recent proposals by the IASB to ...| The Footnotes Analyst
The IASB will shortly issue its new international standard for the presentation of financial statements - IFRS 18. Changes that will benefit investors include a prescribed operating-investing-financing structure for the income statement, new defined subtotals, additional disaggregation, and a more relevant cash flow presentation. IFRS 18 will better align financial reporting with equity analysis and provide additional and more comparable data to facilitate that analysis, including data that s...| The Footnotes Analyst
