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 will clarify who qualifies as a PIE, the reporting requirements, the role of auditors, and the ongoing responsibilities for entities identified as PIEs  under the updated framework.
