Consultancy

The capitalisation debate of internally generated intangible assets: a) exploration and evaluation expenditure in extractive industries and b) software development costs.

This project examines companies’ accounting policies and reporting practices on the wider area of intangible assets’ recognition as well as climate change related reporting. This work will result in three reports, jointly badged with ACCA, and authored by colleagues associated with the Observatory. The first report from this project is expected in October 2020, the second in November/December 2020 and the third one in April 2021. In the meantime, the team will disseminate the findings via three roundtable discussions, two international conferences, and two symposiums.
