The briefing session, scheduled for the 31st of this month, will introduce key aspects of the designation system, including the periodic and discretionary designation of auditors, the subjects, reasons, duration, and methods of designation. Additionally, it will provide guidance on the revised external audit regulations and the Enforcement Decree of the External Audit Act, which are set to be applied starting from the 2024 fiscal year regarding auditor designation.
Furthermore, the session will explain important points that companies subject to periodic designation and accounting firms wishing to be designated as auditors should consider when preparing and submitting the basic data report for auditor designation. It will also cover inquiries received this month from listed companies and auditors registered for listed companies concerning the auditor designation system.
The FSS plans to post the briefing session video and explanatory materials such as the manual for preparing the basic designation data on its website.
