The company has hired an external advisor for the transition, while an internal team was also appointed to supervise the process.

 

Makkah added that the first IFRS-based financial statements for Q1will be prepared before the end of this year.

 

The kingdom’s market regulator, the Capital Market Authority (CMA), has recently called on Tadawul-listed firms to shift their accounting standards in line with IFRS. The deadline for IFRS adoption has been set by the CMA for January 1, 2017.
