BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The need for a revised ISA 315 (Identifying and Assessing the Risks of Material Misstatement) came about due to the lack of clarity and inconsistencies in the 2009 standard. The revisions made require a more robust risk identification and assessment with the ultimate goal of providing more effective and efficient responses to the identified risks. These changes are effective for periods beginning on or after 15 December 2021.

Specific topics to be covered during the session

Changes brought about by the new ISA315 in the auditor’s:

• risk assessment process;
• clarifications on the extent of work required for internal control systems; and
• the use of technology in audits.

Target Audience

The session is specifically targeted to auditors and students, especially those who are pursuing or intend to pursue a career in auditing. It can also prove to be beneficial to financial controllers as they will be well equipped to tackle statutory audits more efficient given a better understanding of the change in the auditor’s risk assessment process.
