Body corporates are high-risk engagements for auditors and accountants, as multiple sets of legislation affect the accounting function and become relevant for audit.

Are you including these accounting implications in your scope of audit work?

Are you comfortable with your responsibilities in terms of:

- Audit reports,
- Auditing an agent’s compliance with other legislation e.g. FICA, Debt Collectors Act, etc., and
- Deciding which assurance standards to apply to business VS trust audits?
