Genuine Learning Blog: AICPA Seeks Comment on Administrative Peer Review Proposal for Firms with PE Backing & Other APS

| , ,

On Sept. 10, the AICPA’s Peer Review Board proposed Peer Review Standards Update (PRSU) No. 3, which would centralize the administration of peer reviews of firms operating under alternative practice structures (APS), including those with private equity investments. The change would require firms operating under non-traditional business models to have their peer reviews administered by the AICPA’s National Peer Review Committee, rather than one of the 23 state administering entities. The comment period for the proposed update will be open until Oct. 25 this year. If approved by the Peer Review Board, it would be effective for peer reviews with years ending on or after Dec. 31, 2025.
