Funded Activity Summary

Elevating auditor professional scepticism by way of improved regulation. This project aims to examine and test alternate regulatory approaches that address ongoing and long standing concerns of audit firm quality inspectors that auditors are not exercising a sufficiently high level of professional scepticism. The project expects to provide strong, empirically-based knowledge on the most effective means of discharging regulatory responsibilities over the audit profession. Expected outcomes of this project include improvements in regulatory practice and an enhanced capacity for Australia's interests to be represented in the development of international auditing standards and regulations.
