4. Principle of Disclosure:

  • Transparently disclose the nature, terms, fair values, gains, losses, and any significant judgments or estimates related to AI derivatives and hedging activities.

5. Principle of Hedge Effectiveness:

  • Assess and measure the effectiveness of hedge relationships in AI operations, ensuring that the hedging instrument offsets changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged item.

6. Principle of Hedged Items:

  • Clearly define and identify the hedged items in AI operations, ensuring consistency and relevance in the hedging relationship.

7. Principle of Hedge Accounting:

  • Provide guidance for applying hedge accounting, detailing how to recognize and measure the effective and ineffective portions of the hedge relationship in AI operations.

8. Principle of Derivative Embedded in AI Contracts:

  • Address scenarios where derivative features are embedded in AI contracts, detailing the criteria for bifurcation and separate recognition.

Updates and Amendments:The AIASC 815 guidelines will be periodically reviewed and updated to reflect advancements in AI technology, evolving market practices in AI derivatives and hedging, and feedback from stakeholders and the public.
