Genuine Learning Blog – Ethics Interpretation Proposal: Compliance Audits

| ,

The AICPA’s Professional Ethics Executive Committee (PEEC) has proposed some new independence rules related to compliance audits. The AICPA is aware that much of the new COVID19 related funding is causing many entities who have no been subject to audit requirements or single audit requirements historically to now be subject to them. They add 2 definition and revise the definition of financial statement attest client to help identify which independence rules apply to these engagements. Comments are due September 1, 2022.

Do you agree with the scoping of the proposed interpretation?
