What It Represents

Common Examples

Accounting Treatment

  • Recorded at amortized cost (if loan-like)
  • Impute interest if below-market rate (except some intragroup under IFRS)
  • Classify current/non-current by expected repayment
  • Assess impairment (expected credit losses)
  • Full disclosure: counterparty, terms, interest, balances

Related party rules demand transparency to spot potential favoritism.
