Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities is described below. Derecognition Financial assets The Credit Union derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred, or in which the Credit Union neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset. Any interest in such derecognised financial assets that is created or retained by the Credit Union is recognised as a separate asset or liability. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount of the asset (or the carrying amount allocated to the portion of the asset derecognised) and the sum of (i) the consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and (ii) any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) is recognised in profit or loss. Any cumulative gain or loss recognised in OCI in respect of equity investment securities designated as Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) is not recognised in profit or loss on derecognition of such securities but transferred to retained earnings.
