Genuine Learning Blog – FASB ED: Purchased Financial Assets

| , ,

In June, the FASB proposed changes to the accounting for purchased financial assets. Based on feedback obtained in its post-issuance review of CECL, stakeholders found the guidance on PCD vs Non-PCD assets confusing and unhelpful. FASB is proposing removing the distinction and expanding the accounting for PCD assets to most purchased financial assets. Comments are due August 28.
