Credit loss and fair value

IFRS 9 expected credit loss modeling for IFRS reporters with US operations

Finbryn provides IFRS 9 expected credit loss models for US subsidiaries and lenders that report to an IFRS parent, building the stage allocation and the default, loss and exposure inputs behind the group pack (IFRS 9, effective 1 January 2018; US GAAP counterpart ASC 326 CECL; checked 2026-10-16). Management and the group auditor own the final provision.

What is included

  • Classification and scope check for each financial asset class
  • Stage allocation rules with the significant-increase-in-credit-risk triggers documented
  • Probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default inputs with scenario weights
  • Provision matrix for trade receivables under the simplified approach
  • Group reporting pack schedules and IFRS 7 disclosure support, with a CECL reconciliation

The process

  1. 1.

    Scope the financial assets

    We list loans, receivables, contract assets, lease receivables and debt investments, and record the classification for each class and the group policy that applies.

  2. 2.

    Set the staging rules

    Quantitative and qualitative triggers and the past-due backstop are written down with the evidence for each, ready for the group's methodology review.

  3. 3.

    Build the loss inputs

    Probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default by segment, with scenario weights and the source of each macro forecast.

  4. 4.

    Run the calculation

    Allowance by exposure and class, the stage movement table and the provision matrix for trade receivables.

  5. 5.

    Reconcile to the local CECL figure

    A bridge by asset class from the US GAAP allowance to the IFRS 9 allowance, with each difference explained in a sentence.

  6. 6.

    Package for the group

    Pack schedules, IFRS 7 disclosure tables and the methodology memo go to your controller, who submits them to the parent.
