Sustaining the Quality of your Company Audit

An external audit provides a company's shareholders/members with an independent opinion about the integrity of the information in a company's financial statements. Ensuring a high standard of audit quality is an important responsibility of directors on behalf of their company shareholders/members and promotes confidence for all stakeholders.

Informed by panellists with deep experience in audit committees, audit standards and financial statements, you will hear how directors and audit committee members can sustain the quality of audits in your company, covering:

• The context for audit quality in Australia
  
• The role of ASIC as the regulator
• The role of directors and audit committees in supporting audit quality
• What are the available inputs for your review?
• How to assess the evidence and determine what is relevant?
• What to do with your review outcomes?

This webinar focuses on the recommendations of AICD's publication, Periodic Comprehensive Review of the External Auditor - Guide for Audit Committees. The webinar will be a valuable companion to the guide and will help you be confident that your company's audit processes and performance are effective in an increasingly regulated environment.
