ACCA Ireland invites you to join us for our Credit Union Conference 2026 which took place as a virtual webinar on Tuesday, 29th Sept 2026.
Chaired by Grainne Murphy, CEO, Gateway Credit Union, this event will cover key accounting issues for Credit Unions.
Dr. Mike Farrell, University College Cork joins us for Session 1 of the conference, where he will provide an overview of the recent changes to FRS 102, with a particular focus on the new lease accounting requirements for credit unions, before considering key accounting issues arising from the Central Bank’s year-end circular.
Donal Coghlan, Director, Fairway Advisors Ltd. will then provide a refresher on the accounting treatment of investments, with particular reference to non-simple fair value accounting and the treatment of realised and unrealised reserves. He will also explore practical issues arising from fair value calculations for non-simple investments, including examples where these calculations have resulted in qualified audit reports for credit unions.
Our final session is a unique opportunity to experience a Simulated Cyberattack, where Christie John, Director, Solution Out Ltd. will lead attendees step by step through what an organisation should do in the case of a cyberattack. This interactive session will include audience engagement and a panel discussion. Attendees will leave with a roadmap to develop a formal policy to manage a cyberattack.
