Nearly three years ago, the International Accounting Standards Board published a new standard for lease transactions – the IFRS 16 – with the objective to “report information that faithfully represents leases transactions and provides a basis for users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases”. This regulation details the identification, measurement, demonstration, and full disclosure of most leases on the balance sheet to facilitate transparency of reporting[1].
