IAS 28 Investments in Associate and Joint Ventures prescribes how to apply the equity method to investments in associates and joint ventures with certain limited exceptions. The Standard also defines an associate by reference to the concept of “significant influence”, requiring the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee (but not joint control or control of those policies).
