We are excited to bring you a glimpse into our recent Annual Financial Reporting Update event, held on May 2nd 2024. It was a resounding success, with our largest turnout yet, and we couldn't be more thrilled to share some of the highlights with you.

This year's event was again presented by Carmen Ridley FCA, ICAEW, and hosted by LNP Audit + Assurance. Carmen's presentations were both informative and insightful, providing attendees with a comprehensive understanding of the latest updates and emerging issues in financial reporting.

Set against the backdrop of Sydney at the Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand offices, the venue provided the perfect setting for our discussions.

Carmen covered updates on both current and emerging issues focusing on:

• New accounting standards effective 30 June 2024 and those available for early adoption

• ASIC activity update

• Updates on sustainability and climate-related reporting in financial statements

• Other contemporary financial reporting issues

Year after year, our Annual Financial Reporting Update event brings together leaders and experts in the field, creating an environment ripe for meaningful discussions and knowledge sharing. These interactions contribute to enhancing the quality of service we offer to our clients.

We're already looking forward to next year's event. If you and your team would like to be part of this insightful gathering in 2025, be sure to follow us on our social media channels for updates and announcements.

Thank you to Carmen for her invaluable contributions, and to all who attended for their engaging discussions and meaningful insights. Here's to another successful year of staying ahead in the world of financial reporting!
