As part of the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board’s (IAASB) public consultation on proposed amendments to its fraud standard, a new four-part video series has been released. The series will help stakeholders understand the proposed changes that strengthen auditor’s responsibilities related to fraud, and the rationale behind them.
