IAS 39 concerns to all kinds of financial devices except for the following, which are scoped out of IAS 39: [IAS 39.2]
interests in subsidiaries, aides, and joint ventures accounted for under IAS 27, IAS 28, or IAS 31; although IAS 39 applies in situations where under IAS 27, IAS 28 or IAS 31 such concerns are to be accounted for under IAS 39. The standard furthermore concerns to derivatives on an interest in a subsidiary, aide, or junction venture
employers' privileges and obligations under worker advantage designs to which IAS 19 applies
contracts in a business blend to buy or deal an come by at a future date
rights and obligations under insurance contracts, except IAS 39 does request to economic instruments that take the pattern of an protection (or reprotection) agreement but that principally engage the transfer of financial dangers and derivatives embedded in protection contracts
