As entities approach the next round of reporting, it will be important to focus on providing investors clear information on their transition to IFRS 16. Most entities who have started their transition plans are finding data collection to be a primary concern. Suitable tools to perform robust modelling of different scenarios is another key challenge. In many instances Excel has not been a suitable tool.
