1 ORGANISATION AND OPERATIONS
Islamic Corporation for the Development of the Private Sector (the “Corporation”) is an international specialized institution established pursuant to the Articles of Agreement (the Agreement) signed and ratified by its members’. The Corporation commenced its operations following the inaugural meeting of the General Assembly held on 6 Rabi Thani, 1421H, corresponding to July 8, 2000.
According to the Agreement, the objective of the Corporation is to promote, in accordance with the principles of Shari’ah, the economic development of its member countries by encouraging the establishment, expansion, and modernization of private enterprises producing goods and services in such a way as to supplement the activities of Islamic Development Bank (“IsDB”).
The Corporation, as a multilateral financial institution, is not subject to any external regulatory authority. It operates in accordance with the Agreement and the approved internal rules and regulations.
The Corporation carries out its business activities through its headquarters in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
2 BASIS OF PREPARATION
These separate financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards issued by the Accounting and Auditing Organisation for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) and the Shari’ah rules and principles as determined by the Shari’ah Board of the IsDB Group. For matters, which are not covered by AAOIFI standards, the Corporation seeks guidance from the relevant International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) issued or adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the relevant interpretation issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee of IASB provided they do not contradict the rules and principles of Shari’ah as determined by the Shari’ah Board of IsDB Group.
During the year ended 20 Dhul Hijjah, 1434H (Corresponding to 3 November 2013), the Corporation used the available guidance for the “Investment Entities” amendments to IFRS 10 ‘Consolidated financial statements’ and resultant changes in IFRS 12 ‘Disclosure of interest in other entities’ and IAS 27 ‘Separate financial statements’ (the “Amendments”) which were effective from the period beginning 1 January 2015. Accordingly, the Corporation discontinued issuing consolidated financial statements and used the transition guidance of the amendments to IFRS 10 and IFRS 12, in so far it relates to the adoption of amendments related to investment entities.
During the year, the Board of Directors, based on management’s reassessment of the business model of the Corporation in the light of the investment entity definition under IFRS 10, resolved to revoke the Investment Entity status effective from January 1, 2022 and, as a result, the Corporation discontinued using the amendments to IFRS 10 and IFRS 12.
