PSA 265 : COMMUNICATING DEFICIENCIES IN INTERNAL CONTROL TO THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Scope
This Philippine Standard on Auditing (PSA) deals with the auditor’s responsibility to communicate appropriately to those charged with governance and management deficiencies in internal control1 that the auditor has identified in an audit of financial statements. This PSA does not impose additional responsibilities on the auditor regarding obtaining an understanding of internal control and designing and performing tests of controls over and above the requirements of PSA 315 and PSA 330. PSA 260 establishes further requirements and provides guidance regarding the auditor’s responsibility to communicate with those charged with governance in relation to the audit.
