AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements B51-B54: Investees not governed by votes: consider the purpose and design, involvement at set-up, contractual arrangements at inception, and rights that crystallise on particular events, and weigh any explicit or implicit commitment to keep the investee operating

What does B51-B54 require?

Where voting rights do not decide who directs relevant activities (as in many structured entities), the investor examines the decisions made when the investee was designed, its own involvement in that design, and the contractual arrangements established at inception, including call, put and liquidation rights. Being involved in the design is not enough on its own, but it may show the investor had the chance to obtain power. Relevant activities may arise only when specific circumstances occur, such as default on assets, and rights that are exercisable only then can still be substantive. A commitment, explicit or implicit, to ensure the investee keeps operating as designed may increase exposure to returns and the incentive to obtain power.
