Given the restrictive criteria above, redeemable shares of investment funds will rarely qualify for equity classification under the IAS 32 amendment.
Apart from redeemable shares which may be classified as liabilities, an investment fund may have activity in equity (e.g. shares meeting the definition of equity, or available-for-sale securities in which changes in fair value would be recorded through other comprehensive income). In such cases, the investment fund is required to present a statement of changes in equity.
