One of the disclosure requirements for third country issuers under the UK Prospectus Rules is that such issuers are to provide financial information according to (i) the international accounting standards adopted pursuant to the procedure of Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 (IFRS) or (ii) a third country's national accounting standards equivalent to these standards. Companies which do not report under IFRS and which are looking to list on the main market of the London Stock Exchange can benefit from the flexible provisions under Jersey company law in relation to financial reporting. Specifically, Jersey company law has not adopted IFRS as its sole financial reporting model and Jersey listed companies are permitted to prepare accounts in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) prescribed under Jersey law.
The Companies (GAAP) (Jersey) (Order) 2010 (the Order) prescribes the generally acceptable accounting principals for a Jersey listed company. These include:
A Jersey listed company can therefore prepare accounts under UK GAAP or IFRS amongst the other GAAP set out above.
The Order was introduced in response to an EU directive on audits (Directive 2006/43/EC) which applies to auditors of Jersey listed companies. In addition to this, the Order was introduced to improve Jersey’s standards so they were in line with the International Organisation of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) standards.
Any auditor of a Jersey listed company must be a ‘recognised auditor’ which includes an auditor included on the Register of Recognised Auditors maintained by the Jersey Financial Services Commission. Auditors who are bound by rules governing a professional body such as the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales are included on this register. The Companies (Audit) (Jersey) Order 2010 sets out the powers of the Jersey Financial Services Commission and the rules applying to auditors.
