The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE), have granted approval to the the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) to extend the submission deadline for insurance company’s FY 2018 results to April ending.

This information was disclosed in Lagos by NAICOM’s Deputy Commissioner for Insurance (Technical), Thomas Olorundare Sunday.

Reason for the extension

The extension was declared to make sure that underwriters in the Nigerian insurance industry do not go against the governing rules of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) 9. It will also to allow insurance companies tidy their accounts in line with the (IFRS) 9.

Submission of 2018 financial results – NSE also extended the deadline for insurance companies quoted on the NSE to submit their 2018 financial results, following their transition to the International Financial Reporting Standard, IFRS 9.

NAICOM requested the extension – NAICOM requested for the extension so that insurance companies can  have enough time to arrange their results in accordance with the IFRS 9 model.

“We have reached out to the NSE and SEC to grant extension to insurance companies as regards submission of their 2018 financial results, and they have granted one month extension to insurance firms quoted on the NSE.”

“Operators need to do more to incorporate the tenets of IFRS 9 into their annual financial results.”
