Reach UK GAAP — FRS 102 readiness without rebuilding your policy programme
FRS 102 is the principal Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland for entities not applying IFRS. Maintained by the Financial Reporting Council (FRC). The 2024 amendments (effective accounting periods starting 1 January 2026) align lease + revenue accounting more closely with IFRS 15 + IFRS 16. Used by the majority of UK + Irish SMEs + most private companies. FRS 101 (reduced disclosure framework based on IFRS) + FRS 105 (micro-entity regime) sit alongside FRS 102. Quick Policy maps UK GAAP — FRS 102 into the policy families, controls, and evidence your team needs - and keeps it current between audits.
