Regulations on Lease Accounting in the Banking System of Azerbaijan
The Central Bank of Azerbaijan issued these regulations to standardize lease accounting practices across the national banking system. Banks must classify leases as either finance or current based on specific criteria, including ownership transfer, purchase options, lease duration relative to asset life, and payment coverage of market value. The framework mandates precise accounting entries for lessee and lessor institutions regarding asset recognition, liability tracking, income allocation, and comprehensive financial statement disclosures.
