We discussed IAASB’s proposed auditing standard for less complex entities (LCE). The IAASB has taken a significant step and proposes a new stand-alone auditing standard for less complex entities. First, we will hear about the objectives and the details of the proposed standard from the IAASB’s LCE Task Force Chair; then speakers will present perspectives from a practitioner’s, a user’s and a regulator’s point of view. Welcome are all stakeholder groups with an interest in audits of less complex entities.
