1 IAASB Quality Control Project Karin French, IAASB Member ASB Meeting July 19,
2 BACKGROUND OF QC PROJECT Concerns noted from Results from ISA Implementation project Respondent comments on public consultation for IAASB Work Plan Regulators and audit oversight bodies Concerns led to identification of four priority projects professional skepticism quality control group audits special considerations in audits of financial statements of financial institutions (which evolved into ISA 540 Estimates project) 2
3 BACKGROUND OF QC PROJECT Three working groups established in fall of 2014 to focus on identifying issues and performing outreach Resulted in Invitation to Comment - Enhancing Audit Quality in the Public Interest: A Focus on Professional Skepticism, Quality Control and Group Audits Issued December 2015 with a 150-day comment period Identified concerns and challenges Proposed quality management approach to ISQC 1 Received 87 comment letters from a broad range of stakeholders 3
4 OUR INVITATION TO COMMENT THEMES FROM OUTREACH Strong calls for the IAASB to maintain a principles-based approach to its standards, but also to sharpen their focus and provide increased clarity on how to apply them to different and evolving circumstances Support for the current standards (including ISQC 1) as a sound starting point for consideration of future enhancements, including strengthening certain important elements More practical guidance is also needed calls for more examples of what good looks like Not necessarily in the ISAs, but may be Staff guidance or other solutions Reinforce importance of understanding the business and operational drivers as foundational to performing quality audits Consider the impact of culture on the standards and on how they can and should be applied 4
5 QUALITY CONTROL CHALLENGES IDENTIFIED IN ITC ISQC 1 Direct leadership responsibility and accountability for quality Engagement performance matters Understanding causal factors of findings from internal and external inspections and monitoring the effectiveness of remedial actions Extant standard viewed as "one size fits all" and not easily scalable EQC review requirements 5
6 OUR INVITATION TO COMMENT - THEMES ON QUALITY CONTROL Support for emphasizing importance of tone at the top and leadership responsibilities and accountability Driven down through the firm importance of tone at the middle also highlighted Support for updating ISQC 1 to incorporate and emphasize the importance of and need for monitoring / remediation / root cause analysis / expectation of continuous improvement mindset Ongoing support for the importance of EQCR a key quality control measure But keep balance and perspective relative to engagement partner who is ultimately responsible for quality 6
7 OUR INVITATION TO COMMENT - THEMES ON QUALITY CONTROL Support for looking at emphasizing and strengthening role of engagement partner (will also help in group audits) Including in situations where the engagement partner is not located where the majority of the work is performed Mixed views on whether the IAASB should establish requirements for transparency reporting; however, calls from some to continue exploring the topic, including possible use of audit quality indicators 7
8 OUR INVITATION TO COMMENT - THEMES ON QUALITY CONTROL General support for incorporating a QMA in revising ISQC 1 However, not enough understanding yet as to what this may entail and some reservations about extent of change that may be required agreed that would enhance scalability, in particular for firms that may not perform audits or audits of listed entities robustness of ISQC 1 cannot be lost in restructuring the standard board encouraged to consider how QMA could be developed at engagement level 8
9 MAKING PROGRESS Project Plan developed for Quality Control and Group Audits, approved by board in December 2016 Task Force working through issues, proposing recommendations to board, performing outreach Goal of issuing EDs in December

Firm still needs to identify: More granular quality objectives More granular quality risks or additional quality risks and responses 11
