Overview

Boost quality management through improved processes (bold)

With an emphasis on more proactive and continual improvement, the monitoring and enforcement of quality management (QM) systems for audit and accounting practices have changed.

The revised QM standards take a proactive approach to quality management, with an increased emphasis on monitoring, remediation and improvement. Firms are now required to evaluate their system and annually conclude on its effectiveness.
