Control is achieved based on contractual, ownership, or other pecuniary interests
Primary beneficiary—The entity that has controlling financial interest in the VIE and must consolidate it. This must be reassessed every year.
Both conditions must exist for control:
Qualitative approach used to determine control when power is shared among unrelated parties, which could lead to none of the entities consolidating the VIE
Kick-outs rights—The ability to remove the reporting entity who has the power to direct the VIE’s significant activities
Participating rights—The ability to block the reporting entity with the power to direct the VIE’s significant activities
