Description

With a few exceptions, all insurance contracts (including reinsurance contracts) that a company issues and all reinsurance contracts that a company possesses are subject to IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts. The standard offers a temporary exemption from the requirements of some other IFRSs, including the requirement to take into account IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates, and Errors when choosing accounting policies for insurance contracts, in light of the IASB's comprehensive project on insurance contracts.

For yearly periods starting on or after 1 January 2005, IFRS 4 was released in March 2004. Beginning on January 1, 2023, IFRS 17 will take the place of IFRS 4.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
