Accounting for operating leases: Key differences between VAS and IFRS 16

As international accounting standards continue to evolve and financial transparency requirements become increasingly stringent, the transition from Vietnamese accounting standards (VAS) to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) has become a strategic imperative for organisations aiming to ensure compliance and strengthen their financial management capabilities.

IFRS 16 – the lease accounting standard – introduces fundamental changes compared to VAS, directly affecting the structure of financial statements, EBITDA, leverage ratios, and lease management practices.

The webinar Accounting for operating leases: Key differences between VAS and IFRS 16 will provide in-depth analysis, practical case studies, and actionable transition strategies to enable your organisation to implement IFRS 16 with precision, achieve compliance, mitigate risks, and enhance the efficiency of financial reporting processes.

Key takeaways:

• Understand core differences in accounting for operating leases between VAS and IFRS 16
• Assess the impacts of IFRS 16 on financial statements, EBITDA, and key financial metrics
• Explore practical transition strategies to ensure compliance and minimise risks in application
