  • المحتوى بالإنجليزية Should an auditor uncover fraud? Or is it the responsibility of directors and managers? That’s a question a government-commissioned report has grappled with as the U.K. attempts to move on from a litany of embarrassing corporate failures.

    Overlapping and ambiguous legislation has ensured “there is both confusion and a gap between the reality and the expectations of performance of auditors in this area,” said Donald Brydon, the former Royal Mail Group Ltd. chairman who led the review. It’s the third government investigation in a year to look at regulatory oversight of audit.

    On Wednesday, Brydon said for the first time that he wanted the incoming watchdog to make clear that auditors will be required to “endeavor to detect material fraud in all reasonable ways.”

    Stung by a string of scandals at prominent British companies including failed government contractor Carillion Plc, authorities demanded reforms to roll back the dominance of the largest firms known as the Big Four -- Deloitte, KPMG, EY and PricewaterhouseCoopers. A tribunal is currently considering whether auditors at Deloitte were too cozy with senior management at British software firm Autonomy, in the run-up to one of the country’s largest ever corporate writedowns.

    “I have found the question of fraud and auditors’ related responsibilities the most complex and most misunderstood,” Brydon said.

    The Financial Reporting Council, which is soon to be abolished as industry watchdog, said Brydon’s suggestions would “have significant implications for the FRC in respect of our activities and resource requirements” should the government agree to implement the new rules.

    On Tuesday, the FRC moved to cut down on conflicts of interest by strengthening its ethics standards. The changes will prohibit accounting firms from providing a number of advisory services to listed companies and financial institutions.

    Brydon pointed out that criticisms have been leveled against auditors for more than 80 years. He finished his 138-page report with a poem from the 1930s: “And according to our figures the enterprise is wrecked / But subject to these comments, the balance sheet’s correct.”

  • المحتوى بالإنجليزية KPMG UK announce new audit structure – but is it enough?

    KPMG UK will change their executive governance structure to separate audit from the rest of the business – but critics have said the changes do not go far enough.

    The changes will see KPMG create an Audit Executive Committee in attempt to deliver on some of the recommendations made by the CMA and BEIS committee, but they do not represent a full separation of the firm’s audit practice from the rest of the business.

    Campaigner professor Richard Murphy, from City University, was sceptical about the proposed restructuring and called for KPMG to “entirely separate its audit firm from the rest of its activities.”

    “I welcome KPMG recognising that there is an issue to address with regard to audit independence. I regret that they are addressing it the wrong way. There is no way that any number of so-called Chinese walls will restore any credibility to the Big Four on this issue,” he said.

    KPMG UK chairman Bill Michael insisted that the firm was committed to reform. “We’re serious about making changes to restore trust in audit. We understand concerns that the profession’s operating models have become too opaque and we are taking action to tackle these.”

    The Audit Executive Committee will be headed by Jon Holt, who will become head of audit. The restructuring is intended to enable faster management decisions to be made by those closest to the firm’s clients.

    “The sole aim and focus of our chair of audit, our new audit executive and our Audit Oversight Committee is to drive audit quality, via strong leadership, good governance, rigorous controls, independent decision-making and separate performance management from the rest of the firm,” he added.

    However, Prof. Murphy refused to believe that KPMG could be trusted to regulate themselves adequately. “When it is apparent that they cannot comply with existing externally imposed audit regulations, no one will believe that they will respect those that they claim that they will voluntarily apply to themselves to save their own corporate skin.”
