Overview     

Standard-setters and other international bodies are regularly churning out publications containing information that every accounting practitioner needs to apply in the performance of their duties.  

The Staff of the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA) has released a question and answer (Q & As) publication to explain key revisions to the non-assurance services (NAS) provisions of the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants. Together with the recently issued fee-related revisions to the Code, the NAS revisions significantly strengthen the International Independence Standards by addressing public interest concerns about independence when firms provide NAS to their audit clients. 

Besides dealing with aspects that relate to the audit of public interest entities, this publication is also intended to assist professional accountants in public practice as they adopt and implement the revisions.  

Our technical expert Lettie Janse van Vuuren CA(SA) is presenting this webinar on 13 September 2022 from 10: a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Join Lettie for a dissection of the Staff of IESBA's Q & A publication.
