GASB 75 Compliance

What are GASB 75 accounting standards?

GASB 75 is an accounting standard relating to accounting and financial reporting for postemployment benefits other than pensions. This new standard works with the goal of improving the effectiveness of existing standards of accounting and reporting for all postemployment benefits, focusing on governments with employees receiving OPEB, as well as non-employer governments with the obligation of providing  financial support for OPEB employees.

Is GASB 75 compliance important?

Credit rating agencies have already mentioned that particular attention will be paid to mismatches between liabilities and assets. At a period of time when many local governments are already struggling to maintain their ratings, it is crucial to be able to determine just how GASB 75 will impact their financial statements and how to properly calculate OPEB costs.
