To help our stakeholders understand the IESBA’s recent proposed Code of Ethics changes to promote role and mindset expectation, the IESBA hosted a webinar detailing these changes.
Listen to IESBA Deputy Chair Richard Fleck share an overview of the proposed revisions, including:
- Highlighting professional accountants’ wide-ranging role in society and the relationship between compliance with the Code and the responsibility to act in the public interest;
- Enhancing the robustness of the fundamental principles of integrity, objectivity and professional behavior;
- Requiring an inquiring mind when applying the conceptual framework; and
- Highlighting the importance of being aware of bias and having the right organizational culture.
Comments to the Exposure Draft, Proposed Revisions to Promote the Role and Mindset Expected of Professional Accountants, are requested by October 31, 2019. For more information, please visit the Role and Expectations web page.
