AUDITING STANDARDS AND QUALITY CONTROL

soft skills Just as there are accounting standards, there are also audit standards to give auditors guidance (and in some cases rules) as to how they should perform their audit work. Many countries have their own national audit standards – e.g. In the UK, the Auditing Practices Board set them. There are also International Standards on Auditing (ISAs), which are set by the International Audit & Assurance Standards Board (IAASB), part of the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC). For countries without their own audit standards, the ISAs provide a set of standards that can be adopted, or altered based on national requirements. Quality control is partly achieved by having audit standards to follow ... however it is also achieved by the RSBs (e.g. ACCA) checking the audit work of their members, and handling complaints.
