Definition
IFRS 16 is the lease accounting standard that generally requires lessees to recognize most leases on the balance sheet as a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability. For asset teams, that means lease-backed equipment and spaces must stay connected to operational identity — not only to a finance spreadsheet.
