The role of BDO’s IFRS Advisory requires us to be on the cutting edge of accounting challenges.

Due to our experience and constant learning, we’re always accumulating various insights and thought leadership positions on these challenges.

As part of our ongoing service to current and prospective clients, we have summarised a number of these into our “Cheat Sheet” series and Accounting Alert articles.

Please click on the library below to access these publications currently issued by BDO’s IFRS Advisory team.

We hope you find these valuable. If you have any questions, please get in contact.

These publications have been carefully prepared, but it has been written in general terms and should be seen as broad guidance only. These publications cannot be relied upon to cover specific situations and you should not act, or refrain from acting, upon the information contained therein without obtaining specific professional advice.
