Course outline
The revision of GRAP 104 marks one of the most significant developments in public sector accounting in recent years. Its impact on financial reporting is far-reaching, and understanding the changes is essential for preparers, stakeholders, and users of financial statements.
There are numerous changes; however, at the heart of the revision lies the shift from the incurred loss model to a forward-looking expected credit loss (ECL) model for assessing the impairment of financial assets. This change represents a fundamental shift in how financial risk is recognised and reported.
The revised standard is effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 April 2025. With implementation deadlines now upon us, the window for preparation has closed, and the time for action is here.
