The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) invites you to attend its upcoming webinar on new, first of its kind professional judgement guidance for auditors.

When: Tuesday 26 July, 3pm-4pm
Note: A Teams Live link will be sent to registered attendees in advance

The webinar will include a presentation on the new guidance from experts in the FRC’s Audit and Assurance team followed by a Q&A.

Professional judgement is key to high quality audit, however the FRC regularly identifies poor professional judgement as one of the most significant issues affecting audit quality. If applied widely, the guidance will improve audit quality by enhancing the consistency and quality of professional judgement exercised by auditors.

The webinar will be of particular interest for auditors and central technical teams, but will also have wider interest for those interested in audit quality, such as audit committee members and investors.
