EP 100 IG 5 – Frequently Asked Questions on Provision of Non-Audit Services to Listed Entities

EP 100 (revised on 7 September 2022) sees a revision to paragraph SG410.27A which includes the introduction of a new term, “audit-related services” (ARS).

The revised paragraph SG410.27A scopes out from the fee proportion computation:

(i) non-audit services fees earned by the firm or its network firms from the audit client’s parent and sister entities; and

(ii) ARS fees.

ISCA Ethics Committee has developed the EP 100 Implementation Guidance 5 (EP 100 IG 5) to assist professional accountants in public practice in fulfilling the requirements of revised paragraph SG410.27A of EP 100 (revised on 7 September 2022) which is expected to be effective 15 December 2022.

Of note, FAQ 2 of EP 100 IG 5 contains a non-exhaustive list of common examples of ARS and the rationale behind the inclusion of each example as ARS whilst FAQ 3 provides an illustrative example of fee proportion computation under revised paragraph SG410.27A. These FAQs are useful references for audit firms.
