This 2-hour webinar is designed for
stakeholders including directors, financial officers, auditors, compliance
professionals, and corporate governance practitioners. Participants will gain
insights into the updated definition of Public Interest Entities (PIEs), the
rationale behind these changes, and their implications for financial
reporting, auditing practices, and broader corporate governance. The session
will provide a platform for discussing the evolving regulatory landscape
surrounding PIEs and how organisations can adapt to these changes.



This
webinar provides an in-depth analysis of the updated definition of Public
Interest Entities (PIEs) under South African law, specifically with reference
to changes in the IRBA Code of Professional conduct and related regulatory
changes.
The session will explore the broader implications for corporate
governance, regulatory compliance, and the auditing of entities that qualify as
PIEs.


The
new definition of PIEs impacts various stakeholders, including companies,
auditors, legal advisors, compliance officers, and board members. This session

auditors, and the ongoing responsibilities for entities identified as PIEs
