The PCAOB’s “Game Change” Proposal on the Auditors’ Report is Small Change — Re:Balance

By Securities Docket on August 29, 2013, 9:21 am

That’s because the PCAOB is playing it small all the way. Board member Steven Harris emphasized “the need not to change what auditors do, but to change how they report what they do” (The emphasis is his, not mine). Board member Lewis Ferguson concurred, noting that “the standard does not require the auditor to do any additional work.”
