Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, University of Glamorgan (Business School), course: International Accounting & Audit, language: English, abstract: This paper provides an overview of the current regulatory frameworks for financial reporting and auditing in the UK, US and Germany. During the last years these frameworks were noticeably changed. These changes arose especially from political interest in accounting regulation following the Enron collapse. The main change in the US was the introduction of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act containing strict regulations for auditors, including their responsibilities and services. It also contains a list of prohibited audit activities, the so-called “non-audit” services. The main feature of the Act was the creation of an oversight board to regulate and control auditors of public companies. Thus the “Public Company Accounting Oversight Board” was established. The PCAOB is a private-sector non-profit overseer, supervised by the US Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) which regulates basically anything related to the securities market. Following the collapse of Enron and the turbulence in the UK markets that followed, a review of financial regulation in the UK was ordered, covering for example auditor independence, corporate governance, financial reporting and auditing standards and accountability of audit firms. In order to restore credibility in UK accounting the Financial Reporting Council (FRC), an independent private sector body funded by the accountancy profession, was set up. The FRC has several subsidiary bodies, including the Professional Oversight Board (POB) providing independent oversight of the regulation of the auditing profession. The German Auditor Oversight Commission (AOC) was established according to the Auditor Oversight Law. It is in charge of the public oversight of all activities of the German Chamber of Public Accountants (WPK) with respect to statutory auditors. The Commission has the ultimate responsibility in the areas of licensing, registration, disciplinary investigations and quality assurance, all with respect to members of WPK entitled to provide statutory audit services (WPK, n.d.). It is argued that these new regulations impose another layer of bureaucracy with significant costs for very little apparent gain. But ethical issues surrounding the public’s perception of auditor performance need to be addressed, not just for the sake of the profession, but for the efficiency and effectiveness of capital markets in general (Malthus and Scoble, 2005).

This book was released on 2016-07-08 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The audit committee has gained considerable attention in the aftermath of 2007-2009 global financial crisis. The audit committee’s role has evolved from a voluntary liaison between management and external auditors to the standing committee of the board of directors in overseeing all aspects of corporate governance, financial reporting, internal controls, risk assessment, and audit activities. This book addresses the determinants of audit committee oversight effectiveness, including their composition, independence, authority, resources, diligence, and activities. The book is organized into three separate volumes and each volume can be utilized separately or in an integrated form. The first volume consists of five chapters, which examine the relevance and fundamentals of the audit committees as well as the determinants of audit committee effectiveness. The second volume consists of nine chapters on financial, auditing, internal control, risk management, ethics and compliance, antifraud, and other oversight functions of the audit committee. The third volume consists of five chapters on the emerging issues of audit committees pertaining to evaluation, education, reporting, and accountability as well as audit committees of private companies, governmental entities and not-for-profit organizations.

This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do we need to understand audit committees? The Cadbury Committee recommended that UK companies should adopt them in response to financial scandals that have stemmed from dubious financial reporting practices. In other countries, similar commissions have made similar recommendations and audit committees are now a common institution. However, many practitioners doubt whether an audit committee really does much to ensure the integrity of a firm's financial statements because, as outsiders, members don't know enough to dig deeply beneath the numbers. The Audit Committee: Performing Corporate Governance argues that such criticism overlooks the ceremonial function of these committees. The audit committee is an arena where members can form and strengthen shifting and fragmentary networks with each other and with the external auditors. Within these networks, both consensus and independence are demonstrated, generating comfort, which legitimises the company and maintains its access to external sources of capital. The audit committee is a key part of the corporate governance structure within an organisation. Many in the UK have been patched together to meet regulatory requirements and their operation is poorly understood because few people other than their members have access to their deliberations. In this account of the world of audit committees the practitioner will find the ethnographical perspectives on ceremonial performance, consensus, independence, and comfort both familiar and different. It's like looking at a photograph of something commonplace from an unusual angle or through a strange-shaped lens.
