ASC 606 (Revenue Recognition) Insurance Organization Services

Initially, insurance organizations thought ASC 606 would have minimal impact on the industry because insurance contracts accounted for under ASC 944 were out of scope. Insurance companies believed they could disregard the major change in accounting standards.

However, as companies and accounting specialists delved into the standard, they discovered that many insurance organizations have revenue streams that fall under the scope of ASC 606.

What does this mean?

Insurers should carefully review whether they are affected by ASC 606 with an advisor who understands their specific revenue streams and methods of accounting.
