Feedback Statement: Auditor Reporting Post-Implementation Review

In 2015, the IAASB released new auditor reporting standards to enhance the communicative value, transparency and relevance of the auditor’s report in the public interest. Reflecting stakeholder input, the feedback statement makes it clear the standards, and the resulting auditor’s report, have broad support from stakeholders—and meet the IAASB’s objectives. It summarizes key themes and views shared with the IAASB through the 2020 Auditor Reporting Post-Implementation Survey as well as a roundtable discussion held in September 2020. The survey, roundtable, and related outreach solicited perspectives on implementation and specific aspects of the revised auditor reporting standards.
