Course Details

In this session we consider what reviewers look for on monitoring visits in relation to non-audit files. This will be of interest to accountants who are expecting a monitoring visit in the near future and to all accountants for on-going compliance and best practice. Monitoring visits can be stressful events, so being well-prepared can make them go much smoother and help to ensure they go well. 

In this session, Lindsay Webber covers the following:

  • Audit-exempt criteria & who can claim audit-exemption?            
  • Audit-exempt files – the requirements
  • Audit-exempt financial statements
  • Covid-19 considerations for audit-exempt engagements; 
  • Monitoring visits – common issues
