The effect of IFRS 9 on comparability
研究了银行业采用IFRS 9对会计可比性的影响,发现整体上可比性下降,主要原因是预期信用损失模型,而分类计量和套期会计规则则提高了可比性。
This study examines the impact of IFRS 9 adoption on accounting comparability in the banking industry. Our findings indicate that overall the adoption of IFRS 9 is associated with a decrease in accounting comparability. The adoption of the expected credit loss model is identified as the primary driver of reduced comparability, while we provide some evidence that IFRS 9 classification and measurement framework and IFRS 9 hedge accounting rules are associated with an increase in comparability. Although we document a decline in comparability during our sample period, we do not draw conclusions on the long-term impact of the expected credit loss model on comparability or its effect on the informativeness of accounting numbers.
