NEW CPE REQUIREMENT FOR THE RENEWAL OF AN APPROVED COMPANY AUDITOR

The Council of the Institute has on 26 May 2016 approved the amendments to Definitions, Section 410 ‘Continuing Professional Education’ and Appendix V ‘Accredited Structured and Unstructured CPE Learning Activities for Section 410’ of the MIA By-Laws (On Professional Ethics, Conduct and Practice). The abovementioned amendments to the MIA By-Laws have been uploaded to the Institute’s website. Members can download a copy at:http://www.mia.org.my/v1/psp/ethics/bylaws.aspx

Subsequent to the above amendments, a minimum of 10 out of 20 structured CPE hours each year to be completed by members for the purpose of renewal as an approved company auditor, must be related to International Standards on Quality Control (ISQC 1), approved auditing standards and/or approved accounting standards.

The main objective is to improve the audit quality and to be in line with the CPE requirements for licence renewal of other professional services1. The new CPE requirement will take effect from 1 January 2017.

To help provide clarity to the new requirement, please refer to the illustrations or examples below:

Scenario 1 – Audit approval expires before or in year 2017

For audit approval expiring in year 2017 (regardless of the expiry month), the Institute will check the CPE compliance of renewal applicants for the prior two years, i.e. year 2015 and 2016. Hence, the new CPE requirements will not yet be applicable for renewal of audit approval that expires in year 2017.

Likewise for audit approval expiring in year 2016 (regardless of the expiry month), the Institute will check the CPE compliance of renewal applicants for the prior two years, i.e. year 2014 & 2015. Hence, the new CPE requirements will not yet be applicable for renewal of audit approval that expires in year 2016.

Scenario 2 – Audit approval expires after or in year 2018

For audit approval expiring in year 2018 (regardless of the expiry month), the Institute will check the CPE compliance of renewal applicants for the prior two years, i.e. 2016 and 2017. Hence, the new CPE requirements will be applicable for renewal of audit approval expiring in year 2018 and onwards. Please refer to table below.

In summary:

What types of structured courses will be eligible for audit approval renewal purposes?

In fulfilling the specific CPE requirement for purpose of renewal, all the accredited structured activities listed under Appendix V of MIA By-laws, must be related to ISQC 1, approved auditing standards and/or approved accounting standards.

All approved courses will have special indication on the brochures by the Institute.

1 Currently there is no specific requirement on the types of CPE to be attended by auditors for renewal of audit approval. This is different from the renewal conditions of tax agents and GST tax agents where only tax/GST-related courses are accepted for renewal purposes.

1. 90% file size reduction"I was already using Excel extensively before the course and my biggest file was 30MB. During the course, I was skeptical as everything seemed so simple, but the thinking behind this course is amazing! I was convinced that I can achieve equal if not more powerful results with simple functions. Now that same file is only 3MB, faster, nicer and the management loves it." David Miller, Head of Business IT

2. 100% data integrity"We are now regarded as the authority when it comes to numbers." Johnny Teo, Finance Manager

Interactive reporting with drill down capability"Instead of giving management tonnes of numbers & tables to read previously, the interactive charts and visuals make report reading a joy than a chore. Management is able to obtain prior months/quarters figures with a click of a button, without having to refer back to old copies of management reports." Phyllis Chin, FP&A
