The amendments, which include enhancing the application of professional scepticism in audits, encourage a more robust risk assessment and thereby more focused responses to identified risks. Effective for audits of financial statements for periods beginning on or after 15 December 2021.

  • Singapore Standard on Auditing (SSA) 220 (Revised), Quality Management for an Audit of Financial Statements.

Practical cases will be used to illustrate the applications and implications of the changes and updates.
