    The amendments focus on updating accounting requirements so that they reflect UK Adopted International Accounting Standards (“IFRS”), whilst noting that the general size and complexity of entities applying FRS 102 is different to those under IFRS.

    The changes will become effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026.
