Executive summary
The study aims to examine the extent to which banking and insurance companies with Fair Value
Measurement, to explore the relationship between the size of the firm and the level of compliance by
the listed banking and insurance companies and the relationship between the profitability of the
companies and the level of compliance. Thirty companies listed with DSE and five companies have
been taken as sample for the study. The study also found that there is a negative significant
relationship between level of compliance to IFRS-13 and the size of the firm and a negative
significant relationship between the profitability of the firm (ROA) and the level of compliance to
BFRS-13. The study also recommended that all regulatory authorities of Bangladesh should give
emphasis on the compliance status of the applicable rules and regulations by the company and the role

INTRODUCTORY ASPECTS
Page | 7
Introduction
IFRS 7 has been amended several times over the years with the clear intention to improve the
disclosure requirements about financial instruments. The latest two amendments relate to transfers of
financial assets (applicable for financial years beginning on or after 1 July 2011) and offsetting
financial assets and financial liabilities (applicable for financial years beginning on or after 1 January
2013). Furthermore, some disclosure requirements previously included in IFRS 7 have been
transferred to IFRS 13. However, there are some new requirements as well as clarifications on
previously existing requirements, included in IFRS 13.
As part of the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements, an entity shall classify
fair value measurements using a "fair value hierarchy" that categorizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy has three different levels and
gives the highest priority to quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets and the lowest
priority to unobservable inputs (IFRS 13 para 72):
Level 1: inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets
and liabilities the entity can access at the measurement date (IFRS 13 paras 76 to
80).
Level 2: inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are
observable for the asset and liability, either directly or indirectly (IFRS 13 paras 81
to 85).
Level 3: inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability (IFRS 13 paras 86
to 90).
The fair value hierarchy aims to increase the coherence and comparability of fair value
measurements and related disclosures by maximizing the use of relevant observable data and
minimizing the use of non- observable data.
Page | 8
In this context, IFRS 13 defines a mandatory set of quantitative and qualitative fair value
disclosures. Qualitative information describes risk management objectives, policies and
processes. Quantitative disclosures,
in turn, provide information about the degree to which the company is exposed to risk, based
on the information provided by its management bodies.
In this perspective, the aim is to assess the extent to which banks operating in Portugal have
complied with the disclosures required under IFRS 13, and what are the trends in the
classification of financial instruments.
Objectives of thestudy:
(1) To examine the extent to which the Bangladeshi banking companies listed with DSE
comply with Fair Value measurement:IFRS-13.
(2) To explore the relationship between the size of the firm and the level of compliance by
the listed banking companies.
(3) To explore the relationship between the profitability of the companies and the level
ofcompliance.
(6) To calculate the financial ratios and identify the areas of concern
(7) To understand the implications in analyzing and interpreting the financial ratios.
Methodology of thestudy:
Three banks and 2 insurance company have been taken as a sample for the study.
The name of the banks and insurance company is

Literature Review
Landsman, (2007) indicated that fair value is more informative than historical cost. The
objective of IFRS13 is to improve consistency, comparability and reduce complexity in fair
value applications. As a result, IASB developed fair value hierarchy. This hierarchy includes
three levels of inputs: level 1 depends on quoted prices in an active market; level 2 depends
on inputs other than quoted prices used in level 1 that are observable for assets and liabilities;
and level 3 which includes unobservable inputs for the assets and liabilities (Picker et al.,
2012).
(Al-Kababji, 2016) studied the extent of compliance with disclosure requirements for fair
value measurement (IFRS 13) in Palestinian corporations, found out direct relationship
between the size of the firm and the level of compliance with the disclosure requirements for
fair value measurement of the firms, no correlation between the profitability of the firm and
the level of compliance with the disclosure requirements for fair value measurement of the
firms. In addition,
Alkababji (2016) referred that using fair value accounting was one of the most important
reason for the financial crisis in banking sector. So, if the market is suffering from lower level
of efficiency and high level of illiquidity, the fair value would provide a misleading
information, especially if it is based on the input of level 2, and level 3 which requires
investors to discount the fair value due to its reliance on other than observable inputs and the
management's judgment (Goh, Li, Ng, & Yong, 2015, p. 3 cited in Daas&Jammal, 2018).
Latridis (2010) studied listed firms on London stock exchange, that the IFRS implementation
has positive effect on the financial performance (measured by profitability and growth
potential) of firms.
Ali et al. (2009) studied the extent of adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRSs) within three major South Asian countries such as India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
The result shows that the overall level of adoption of IFRSs regarding measurement and
disclosure practices is higher in Pakistan compared with India and Bangladesh.
Hossain et al. (2015) examined the extent of application and disclosure of IASs and IFRSs
43 | P a g e
among the listed companies in Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) of Bangladesh using the data
that have been collected randomly from the annual reports of the companies and a survey was
conducted to independent accountants and company management from 2010 to 2013. ―The
study showed that the banking industry has the highest standard deviation which is far more
away from other sectors. Therefore, the highest inconsistency in applying IASs and IFRSs
observed in this sector. It was identified that the reasons behind non-disclosure was mainly
posed due to the desire and awareness of the management of the companies. From the part of
company accountants, three factors are dominants for non-disclosure of accounting standards
properly that are adherence to business risk, chance of losing potential customers and the
standards are irrelevant to the company. From the part of the independent auditors that
reveals that the major influencing factors behind non-disclosure of practices of BASs and
BFRSs are intention of the management of the company to hide important information, lack
of expertise in measuring and reporting value of items by the company, chance of losing the
potential investors, adverse mindset of the entrepreneur to disclose the information,
inadequate expertise of the accountants to measure different elements where fair value of
financial instruments is applicable, awareness of the users of accounting information to get
the information and adherence of business risk.‖ For the developed countries, to ensure
reliability of financial information, fair value accounting is considered as a good measure but
in the developing countries, the question of active market is a major concern. They also
showed that if organizations prepare financial reporting using fair value accounting and
historical value accounting, the benefits of fair value accounting there is derivable
(Enahoro&Jayeoba, 2013). (Jain,2013) concluded that infrastructure to support
understanding, provide oversight, enforcing proper application of the concept, providing
training & awareness programme are some of the essential elements for successful
implementation of Fair Value Accounting.
Ogundana, et al. (2018) showed that there is an association between IFRS 13 increased
disclosure requirement and investing decision. Hence, the adoption of IFRS 13 in the
preparation and presentation of financial statement should be encouraged amongst
companies.
Uyar, et al. (2013) studied Turkish manufacturing companies listed in Borsa Istanbul and
44 | P a g e
found a positive association between voluntary information disclosure level and the variables
such as firm size, auditing
firm size, and proportion of independent directors on the board, corporate ownership, and
corporate governance. But variables namely, profitability, listing age, and board size were
found to be insignificant. However, leverage and ownership diffusion were found to have
negative significant association with the extent of voluntary disclosure.
Sochi (2016) studied to understand and examine the level of mandatory disclosure made by
the listed companies in Bangladesh and found that many corporate annual reports do not meet
the disclosure requirements of the regulatory bodies in Bangladesh. The results also showed
that Companies that are larger in size measured by total capital employed and annual sales
are likely to disclose more information.
Hasan (2015) investigated the extent and level of mandatory and voluntary disclosure
practice of companies in Bangladesh using sample of 54 listed companies in Bangladesh for a
data period of 2010 -2013. This paper analyzed that the mandatory disclosure compliance is
poor among listed companies and on an average 71% of the companies analyzed disclose
above-average number of additional information. The explanatory analyses has shown that
firm size in terms of total asset and status of the company significantly and positively affect
the level and extent of voluntary disclosure in the annual report of Bangladeshi companies.
On the other hand company size in terms of total asset and sales, and company profitability
was also found to have no effect on mandatory disclosure.

Recommendation

60 | P a g e
CONCLUSION
The debate between historical cost accounting and fair value accounting gained
popularity after the recent financial crunch. There is so much writing for and
against fair value measurement and relevancy for historical cost accounting.
Application of IASs and IFRSs largely depends on the market conditions and
management interest of the companies. Fair Value supporters argue that to
increase the quality of financial information, application of fair value is
necessary. On the other hand, opponents of fair value accounting argue that fair
value measurement can provide misleading information if the market becomes
inefficient. However, by taking consideration of the objective of Fair Value
Measurement: IFRS-13, The ICAB adopts IFRS-13: Fair Value Measurement as
BFRS-13 on January 1, 2013 in Bangladesh. Bangladesh is a developing
country. Here, banking sectors play an important role for the economy. Financial
statements are the mirror of the companies’ position. Quality of information is
the precondition for effective decision making. In order to ensure the quality of
information, the bank must comply with the reporting rules and regulations. The
study concentrated on the extent to which the Bangladeshi banking companies
listed with DSE comply with Fair Value Measurement: BFRS-13. Findings from
the study revealed that almost all the banks listed with DSE have scored less
than average and sample companies listed with NYSE scored 100%. The study
also found that there is a negative significant relationship between level of
compliance to IFRS-13 and the size of the firm and a negative significant
relationship between the profitability of the firm (ROA) and the level of
compliance to BFRS-13. That means with the increase of the size and
profitability of the firms, level of compliance to IFRS-13 have not increased.
The study recommends that

Correction:
1. Executive summery is totally different from topic. Properly write Executive
summery based on your report.
2. Alignment and space is not properly used. In objectives of the report there is
no space in any sentence.
3. No primary data is used in your report.
4. Research design is irrelevant and probably copied from a thesis about risk
assessment procedure. Try to write yourself.
5. In Data collection you mention depth interview, which is false. Try to write
honestly. Don’t copy from others without knowing the meaning of the sentence.
6. Literature review is not a part of theoretical overview. If you want to include
Literature review, include it in 1st chapter.
7. Chapter 3 is totally irrelevant and fully copied from some articles that are not
related with your term paper in any way.
8. Page set up is not correct
9. Analysis is not sufficient to take decision.
10. You do not mention the relation (if any) between variables and disclosure
which was one of the main objectives of report.
