Any amendment should avoid:\n<ul>\n<li>Reductions in a relevant and reliable presentation of information in the financial statements;<\/li>\n<li>Reduction in comparability within IFRS 17 or between IFRS standards; or<\/li>\n<li>Increased complexity and therefore reduction in comprehensibility for users of financial statements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Changes shall not unduly disrupt the implementation processes initiated or result in unnecessary delays in the implementation of IFRS 17.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the coming months it will become clear whether any, and if so, what adjustments are necessary to IFRS 17.
