The IVSC is currently reviewing the valuation standards to develop the new IVS. IFRS 13 might be taken into account in the due
process of the new IVS guidance.
Valuation techniques
In contrast to the fair value hierarchy in
IAS 40 and IAS 16, IFRS 13 does not prefer
a specific valuation technique. The fair
value hierarchy in existing IFRS guidance
prioritised the application of a market
approach (or a comparable sales method)
over the income approach (that is, a
valuation technique based on discounted
cash flows) and for the valuation of
property plant and equipment the
cost approach. However, the fair value
hierarchy in IFRS 13 is based on valuation
inputs by maximising the use of relevant
observable inputs and minimising the use
of unobservable inputs rather than the
valuation techniques themselves.
According to IFRS 13, there are generally
three approaches that can be used to
derive fair value: the market approach, the
income approach and the cost approach. To
measure fair value, management should use
valuation techniques consistent with one
or more of these approaches. It should use
valuation techniques that are appropriate in
the circumstances and for which sufficient
data is available, maximising the use of
relevant observable inputs and minimising
the use of unobservable inputs. Valuation
techniques should be applied consistently.
However, a change in the valuation
technique or its application can be

Disclosure requirements
The Board has included significantly
enhanced disclosure requirements into the
new standard, in order to provide users of
financial statements with better information
about the measurement uncertainty
inherent in fair value measurements and to
strengthen market participants confidence
in fair value measurements after the latest
financial crisis. The required disclosures
include:
information about assets measured at fair
value that are used in a way that differs
from their highest and best use;
information about the hierarchy level into
which fair value measurements fall;
transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3; and
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
Outlook
Market value should not change due to a
new fair value definition, and the concepts
in IFRS 13 are in line with the current
practice in general, so the measurement
results should be quite similar in most
circumstances under the new standard as
under IAS 40.
Nevertheless, the new valuation premises
and the new principles may have an
impact on the real estate industry. Real
estate entities should consider what
kind of (limited) situations will require a
redefinition of the rules and procedures to
fulfil the regulations of the new fair value
measurement standard. At the same time,
all real estate entities will face with a lot
