Understanding Singapore Accounting Standards: A Guide for Businesses
In Singapore, the Companies Act requires all companies to maintain proper accounting records. Company directors have access to these records to gain insights into the company’s financial health and transactions, which is crucial to ensure the accuracy of financial statements. Both local companies and foreign company branches in Singapore must prepare annual financial statements per the Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (SFRS), which align with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Smaller companies can utilise SFRS for Small Entities (SFRS SE), tailored to closely match the IFRS for Small Entities, simplifying the reporting process while ensuring compliance and transparency. Accurate financial reporting is crucial for managing a well-run business as it provides a current snapshot of financial status and is vital for companies seeking to expand and attract investment by demonstrating their creditworthiness and growth potential.
While most small companies in Singapore can apply SFRS SE, provided they are not publicly accountable (meaning they do not need to file accounts with authorities or issue securities/shares to the public), some may still require compliance with the full SFRS if they are publicly accountable.
The primary difference between SFRS and SFRS SE lies in the level of disclosure required, offering a more streamlined approach for smaller businesses. The Singapore Accounting Standards Board (SASB) oversees any changes to these standards, ensuring they meet user needs efficiently and cost-effectively.
For businesses seeking clarity on how these standards apply to them and assistance in ensuring compliance, it’s vital to stay informed and consult with accounting professionals.
