Compliance Week caught up with Tom Seidenstein, chair of the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB), to talk about the independent organization’s current and future efforts to improve audit quality, the biggest challenges to audit confidence today, and what emerging issues might be around the corner.
The IAASB approved the new and revised quality management standards and issued these standards on December 17th, 2020. As a result, the IAASB needed to consider conforming and consequential amendments to the IAASB’s Other Standards and the International Framework for Assurance Engagements where they make reference to the extant quality control standards.
