Audit Reform

As CMA Chairman Andrew Tyrie explains: “Most people will never read an auditor’s opinion on a company’s accounts. But tens of millions of people depend on robust and high-quality audits. If a company’s books aren’t properly examined, people’s jobs, pensions or savings can be at risk”.

Trust in the quality of audit underpins confidence in UK  business, the money invested in listed firms by private and institutional investors, and the livelihoods of the people who work for and with the audited companies.
