Rollout of the Revised and Restructured Code

Objective

OBJECTIVE

The objective of the IESBA’s Rollout initiative is to promote awareness of the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (the revised and restructured Code) and support its adoption and effective implementation. Key rollout out activities include:

  • Providing input on, and developing resources and tools about the Code which are maintained on the IESBA’s website. 
  • Oversight of stakeholder engagement activities, including outreach relating to the promotion of the revised and restructured Code. 
  • Liaising with IFAC, national standards setters and others to help support and encourage adoption of the revised and restructured Code.

Since the release of the revised and restructured Code, the IESBA is briefed on the status of rollout activities at each of its meetings. The revised and restructured Code will come into effect in June 2019.
