The Loans and investments guide provides guidance on the accounting for loans and investments after the adoption of the FASB’s recognition and measurement standard and the new credit losses standard. This includes guidance on the accounting for interest income, impairment, purchased financial assets with credit deterioration, refinancing, and forclosures. This guide also addresses the presentation and disclosure requirements, as well as the effective date and transition for the standards.
