International Anti-Corruption Day 9 December 2019

Onze partner Evert Jan Lammers is spreker en panel-lid tijdens het symposium “The Combat of Corruption and the Crucial Role of the Accountancy Profession” op 9 december 2019 georganiseerd door Transparency International in Brussel.

Introduction

Corruption, fraud, misappropriation of assets and other financial scandals …. Scandals that reveal major dysfunctions within enterprises cause waves of social indignation. How could this happen? How come the auditors did not intervene? Instituut van de Bedrijfsrevisoren/Institut des Réviseurs d’Entreprises and Transparency International Belgium have joined forces to organise a seminar which addresses this “expectation gap”.

  • By taking as the starting point, the “as is situation” –  what is the current scope of the audit mandate?
  • By exploring what needs to be done from a regulatory, societal, academic and forensic point of view
  • By tabling some proposals to improve the auditor’s mandate in response to this “expectation gap”
