Description

The landscape of regulation and compliance with respect to the auditing of companies was changed in 2011 with the introduction of the independent review. Not to be confused with an audit which gives a high level of assurance with the expression of a positive opinion on the financial statements, an independent review expresses a negative opinion and provides limited assurance.   

With this introduction, the “new” Companies Act provided for close corporations, schools, trusts, partnerships and sole proprietorships to perform this less onerous and voluntary assurance engagement. Although less onerous, licenced independent review practitioners need to strictly follow laid out regulations that are closely guarded by the CIPC.
