Aptitude Extends Product Portfolio With IFRS 17
To equip insurance CFO’s who will need to act following this morning’s announcement by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), Aptitude Software announces the Aptitude IFRS 17 Solution.
The Aptitude solution will perform IFRS 17 calculations in line with what has been documented by the accounting regulator and addresses the range of processing and systems requirements captured via the company’s extensive market discussions.
IFRS 17 requires extensive changes to finance statements as well as the processes and systems insurance companies rely on to produce management information. As raised on this morning’s IASB webinar, insurance companies are concerned about implementation costs, data requirements, the levels of contract aggregation and the inherent requirement to enhance financial control in their accounting systems.
Aptitude’s specialist accounting product approach enables insurance companies to address the IFRS reporting requirements efficiently, reduce implementation cost and risk and achieve accounting best practice.
These benefits are delivered by plugging holes in insurance companies’ existing systems architectures. The Aptitude solution will embed IFRS 17 processes such as insurance contract portfolio management and P&L attribution, incorporates an ‘out of the box’ insurance data model and accounting templates, and leverages the depth and performance of Aptitude’s proven, packaged operational accounting platform.
Importantly the Aptitude approach delivers flexibility to support other accounting and regulatory reporting requirements, including IFRS 9 and IFRS 16.
“The onslaught of current accounting policy changes – including IFRS9,
IFRS 15, IFRS16, and IFRS17 – all require enterprises to realize control and account for granular contract detail in their business” says Ross E. Chapman, Aptitude Software’s Marketing Director.
“The Aptitude IFRS 17 solution will equip insurance finance teams with the foundation to address these requirements while improving control, transparency and insight over future accounting.”

Access Advance Announces HEVC Advance and VVC Advance Pricing through 203022.7.2025 03:00:00 EEST | Press release
Access Advance LLC (“Advance”) today announced the results of several significant decisions by the Licensors in both the HEVC Advance and VVC Advance Patent Pools. Both patent pools opted to maintain their current royalty rates and caps for Licensees who sign before December 31, 2025, and to extend an incentive that aligns the royalty caps for Advance’s Multi-Codec Bridging Agreement (“MCBA”) and the VVC Advance Patent Pool for Licensees who sign the MCBA during the same period. The result is that Licensees who join the HEVC Advance program, gaining access to more than 27,000 patents, on or before December 31, 2025, can lock in current rates and caps through 2030. This protection applies both to ongoing royalty obligations and calculation of royalties due for past sales. Additionally, both current and new HEVC Advance Licensees who join the VVC Advance Patent Pool and execute the MCBA by December 31, 2025, will enjoy MCBA royalty caps that match the royalty caps for the VVC Advance pro
