Effective date: 1 November 2023

Prepared by: AEA

Description of Subject: Quarterly update of the OAG List of new or amended accounting and assurance standards. This update supersedes the previous version.

Impact on Audit Teams: The list covers all new IFRS, PSAS and assurance standards that are mandatorily effective for 31 December or 31 March year-end audits.

The list was created to help keep auditors current on recent developments in accounting and assurance that are relevant to the entities we audit.

An Excel-based tool was used in order to generate a customized report to meet specific information needs, and to assist auditors with a variety of requirements, such as (but not limited to):

  • Preparing RAC documents,
  • Auditing financial statement note disclosures (such as changes in accounting policies),
  • Preparing for discussions with audit entities, or
  • Keeping current on recent developments in accounting and assurance standards relevant to the entities we audit.
