Income Statement – P&C Example (PAA)

The Income Statement or “Statement of Financial Performance” under IFRS 17 is a drastic divergence from IFRS 4. This course will teach you about the new sections and what is contained in each of the new Income Statement sections, as seen from the perspective of a P&C Insurer applying the PAA.

IFRS 17 Income Statement

  • Fundamental change to the income statement under IFRS 17
  • Very different view and presentation
  • Different split of Expenses
  • Splits Income Statement into Sections:
    • Insurance Service Result
    • Investment Result
    • Other Result / Income Taxes

Example Assumptions

Simplifying Assumptions for our Example:

  • All business is subject to the PAA
  • All acquisition expenses (commissions, premium taxes, etc.) are expensed as incurred
  • Other expenses split between attributable and non-attributable
  • All groups of contracts are profitable
  • No Other Comprehensive Income (OCI)
