PMC Analytics is a web-based hedge accounting solution that will help you comply with the new regulatory changes arising from IFRS 9.

The new regulatory changes arising from IFRS 9 (Effective January 2018):

  • Entities are now required to formally document a hedge strategy which has implications for designating future hedge relationships
  • FRS 9 only requires an ‘economic relationship’ between the hedging derivative and the hedged item and removes bright line requirements for determining a highly effective hedge
  • Hedging entities can now defer and amortise the time value of options used to hedge one-sided risks useful when using rate caps or FX options to manage risk

Credit-adjusted valuations and ongoing testing are still necessary on a periodic basis under IFRS 9, which are easily managed in PMC Analytics.
