About the module

Small and medium-sized entities make up the majority of companies in the UK and Ireland. Due to increases to the company size thresholds in the UK and the EU, more entities will become eligible to prepare financial statements under a less onerous small companies' regime. Meaning that now is a great time to get to grips with the requirements in this area.

This short course covers the key issues of a ‘true and fair’ view and additional disclosures.

We also discuss how the impact of the Financial Reporting Council’s periodic review will be felt more by small entities in the UK. Following Brexit, the FRC is now able to require more disclosures from UK-based small entities and small limited liability partnerships.
