Updates from IESBA

Back

The proposed strategy and work plan sets out the IESBA’s vision, strategic drivers and themes to guide its actions over the next strategy period of 2024-2027, as well as a number of topics the IESBA has identified as potential new work streams for the period.

While the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) has been significantly strengthened in recent years, the IESBA believes it is important to continue to evolve the Code with developments in business and the external environment to maintain its robustness and relevance, a need further emphasized by continuing corporate failures around the world that erode public trust in the accountancy profession.

Among other actions to achieve its strategic vision, the IESBA plans to devote significant efforts to expanding and strengthening its working relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. Additionally, the IESBA plans to continue to strengthen its coordination with the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB), as well as other international and national standard setters, to enhance the Code’s interoperability with reporting and assurance standards within the financial and sustainability reporting ecosystems.

Comments are invited by 7 July 2023.
