Webinar: FRS 102 Lease Reporting in Practice
Register for our AICPA & CIMA webinar with Forvis Mazars on practical lessons learnt from the IFRS 16 transition.
Date: Thursday 5 November 2026, 12:30 - 1:30pm (GMT)
A clearer plan for your first FRS 102 reporting period
Understanding the standard is only part of the work. For Financial Controllers and CFOs, the next step is making sure lease information, calculations, controls and disclosures are ready before year end.
This webinar brings together technical accounting insight and practical IFRS 16 transition experience with an accounting perspective on FRS 102 reporting.
We’ll focus on the work behind the numbers: finding and validating lease data, managing changing agreements, establishing clear ownership and preparing an audit trail your team can work with.

Why do finance teams choose LOIS for lease accounting?
LOIS runs FRS 102 Section 20 and IFRS 16 lease accounting for UK and Irish finance teams in one platform, built and supported by CA-qualified accountants, so the first period-end close agrees to the general ledger without a spreadsheet in the chain.
- Every FRS 102 Section 20 and IFRS 16 calculation automated: right-of-use assets, lease liabilities, depreciation, interest and disclosure notes.
- Audit-ready every period: a timestamped audit trail on every modification, and a locked periodic report that agrees the lease subledger to your general ledger.
- CA-qualified support: the LOIS EMEA team are chartered accountants who work on FRS 102 and IFRS 16 in practice, not a software helpdesk.
- Set up in weeks: standardised upload templates and pre-configured workflows move you off spreadsheets with minimal disruption.
