Public consultation on intangible disclosure framework launched

The framework aims to help businesses disclose and communicate their intangibles.

The public has been invited to give feedback on the proposed intangible disclosure framework which aims to help businesses disclose and communicate their intangibles.

The public consultation exercise, launched by the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) and the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore (IPOS), will run from 14 December to 28 February 2023.

The framework consists of four pillars: Strategy, Identification, Measurement, and Management.

Developed by the Intangibles Disclosure Industry Working Group, the framework also seeks to improve market transparency by enabling businesses to identify and disclose their intangibles.

It also aims to provide stakeholders with standardised information about a company’s intangibles so that more informed assessments of business and financial prospects can be made.

Intangibles are non-physical assets of a company that include technologies, brand recognition, data, trade secrets, and intellectual property (IP) such as patents, copyrights and trademarks.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
