On March 31, 2017, the Ministry of Finance revised and issued three new financial instrument accounting standards including Accounting Standards for Enterprises No.22- Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments. The banks of China’s A and H stocks have implemented the new standards since January 1, 2018. From January 1, 2021, the scope of implementation of the standards covers all non-listed commercial banks. The new financial instrument standards have undergone great changes in the classification and impairment treatment of financial assets, which is bound to have a profound impact on Chinese commercial banks. This article analyzes the impacts of new standards on Chinese commercial banks from the aspects of financial asset classification and measurement, impairment, credit risk management, profit and earnings management. Finally, the paper puts forward several suggestions and measures on the system and model construction, credit policy and post-loan risk management and talent training, in order to facilitate banks smooth the transition to the new standards.

In this paper, we investigate the relation between the different accounting treatments of R&D expenditures and the risk of the entity in order to identify under which treatment insiders are more likely to carry out earnings management. By analysing the R&D investment strategies of a sample of 137 listed Italian entities that complied with the requirements of IAS 38 during fiscal year 2009, following Lantz and Sahut (2005), we calculate several indexes that show the preferences of insiders to account R&D expenditures as costs or capital assets, and we study the relation of such preferences with the risk of the entity, which we measure with the unlevered beta. We hypothesize that the entities, which considered the R&D investments as costs, are the riskiest ones due to the higher probability that insiders carried out earnings management. Our results confirm such hypothesis. This paper could have implications for academics and standard setters that could learn that behind accounting discretion, insiders could opportunistically behave against outsiders.
