LBO Def financing fees/ new rule

Hello,

Just read that defered financing fees are no langer on the asset side of the BS, but will be a contra account on the liabilities side. For a LBO modelling test, would you adapt to this new rule?

Is this rule only in the US or also in Europe / IFRS?

Thank you!!
