Accounts receivables

Accounts receivables are stated at the original amount less an allowance for credit losses.

Accounts receivables are recognized in the period when the Group has provided services to its customers and when its right to consideration is unconditional. On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement on Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, including certain subsequent amendments, transitional guidance and other interpretive guidance within ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-11, ASU 2020-02 and ASU 2020-03 (collectively, including ASU 2016-13, “ASC 326”). ASC 326 introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate the allowance for doubtful accounts, replacing the previous incurred loss impairment model, which makes allowances when there is substantial doubt as to the collectability and a loss is determined to be probable.

The Group adopts the current expected credit loss model (“CECL model”) to estimate the expected credit losses, which is determined by multiplying the probability of default.

The Group concludes that there is no impact over the initial adoption of CECL model, which should be treated as cumulative-effect adjustment on accumulated deficits as of January 1, 2023. Accounts receivable balances are written off after all collection efforts have been exhausted.

Accounts receivables mainly represent amounts due from clients for corporate finance services which are recorded net of allowance for the Group’s credit losses. The group does not grant credit terms to the clients. Under ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), the Group adopted the expected loss approach using macroeconomic forecasts, referred to as a current expected credit losses (“CECL”) methodology. The allowance for credit losses reflects the Group’s estimated expected losses. The Group estimates the allowance for credit losses, mainly based on past collection experience as well as consideration of current and future economic conditions and changes in the Group’s collection trends. The Group estimates the expected credit losses for accounts rece
