Abstract: The new International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 16 issued by the International Accounting Standards Board will significantly change accounting for leases. The most important issue is that operating leases beyond one year will be capitalized, which means Off-TheBalance Sheet (OBS) financing via operating lease is effectively eliminated.
