Be equipped with the necessary skills to apply standards of conduct, quality control and ISRS 2400 in performing an independent review.
Specialist work attracts higher fees, with higher profit margins.
DESCRIPTION
The Companies Act, 71 of 2008 requires certain companies to be audited and others to have their financial statements independently reviewed by an independent reviewer. An independent review is an alternative to the audit but still allows an opinion to be expressed on the financial statements. Independent reviews have to be performed in terms of the International Standard on Review Engagements 2400 by a qualified independent reviewer.
The Licence: Independent Review Engagements is a pre-requisite for a BAP(SA) to obtain CIPC recognition and registration as an independent reviewer and perform independent reviews.
