10th anniversary of the EU audit reform
In 2014, the European Union adopted the reform of the Statutory Audit Market through two legislative instruments: i) a Directive amending the 2006 Audit Directive, and ii) the Audit Regulation. Ten years since the 2014 Reform, it is time to take a step back and access what has been achieved and what remains to be done. As we are moving from the successes and failures of the Reform, to the current market developments, it is timely to bring together different market actors and discuss the future of auditing in the EU.
Audit expansion and the ‘butterfly effect’ – is it time for a new EU market structure?
The EU legislative and regulatory agenda is changing the scope of audit.
