The single biggest change brought in by IFRS 9 Financial Instruments is expected credit loss (ECL) impairment accounting. The impairment requirements in IFRS 9 radically change how financial assets loss provisioning is considered in the financial statements from incurred credit loss to expected credit loss. The ECL impairment requirements entities to use techniques that require them to arrive at an estimate of losses based on their expectations of future conditions. By its very nature it is modeling and data intensive.
