IAS 1 (revised 2007) Presentation of Financial Statements
(effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009)
The revised IAS 1 affects the presentation of owner changes in equity and of comprehensive income. Information is to be aggregated based on shared characteristics, specifically requiring disclosure of changes in equity arising from transactions with owners separate from other changes in equity. The Standard requires the entity to present all items of recognised income and expense including gains and losses either in one single statement or in two linked statements. In order to implement the revised IAS 1, ABN AMRO presents two statements, a separate income statement displaying components of profit or loss and a second statement, the statement of comprehensive income, which begins with profit or loss and displays components of other comprehensive income. The ‘owner’ changes in equity remain in the statement of changes in equity.

In addition to this, the Standard has introduced a number of terminology changes, including revised titles for the financial statements. ABN AMRO has renamed the balance sheet to ‘statement of financial position’ and the cash flow statement to ‘statement of cash flows’. Adoption of the revised Standard has had no impact on the reported results or financial position of the Group.
