Recommendations on the Application of IFRS 9

The National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic issues binding recommendations to commercial banks for implementing IFRS 9, mandating robust internal controls and documentation for credit risk management. The document requires banks to classify financial assets based on business models and cash flow characteristics, while establishing a three-stage impairment model to calculate Expected Credit Losses (ECL). Banks must integrate forward-looking macroeconomic factors into their ECL calculations and maintain rigorous governance structures approved by the Board of Directors.
