Description

LIBOR is currently the benchmark for over US$350 trillion in financial contracts worldwide. Yet in 2021, LIBOR (and related IBORs) are going away. The global response to reference rate reform is requiring standard setters to provide practical expedients and exceptions to current modification guidance. This course will review the FASB and GASB standards issued to provide relief for impacted entities.
