Yes
Hi,
Have these been updated for sep 2023 and onwards ?
It seems like these are old ones ???
There are no substantial changes for the Sept 2023 syllabus so the notes are essentially unchanged. But note that there aremsubstantial changes to the exam format. See here:

Are these notes valid for September 2023 sitting?
Thanks
yes, they are.
Dear Sir,
Hope you are well.
Are these lectures still valid for June 2023 sitting?
Thank you.
Yes.
Hi, where does this definition of fraud come from?
Its different the 2006 act, but I prefer the one you give here. Thanks
It is paraphrased from IFAC’s definition in Auditing Standard 240 which is:
“An intentional act by one or more individuals among management, those charged with governance, employees, or third parties, involving the use of deception to obtain an unjust or illegal advantage.”
Is this all sbl lectures valid for dec 2022 ?
Did you get a response on this?
are all videos relevant for September 2022 exams?
Are the note and lectures of SBL in Open Tuition are for the UK syllabus not international syllabus?
Is Tucker’s 5 questions in the syllabus for the September 2021 exam?
Where can I download the lecturer slide, not the SBL notes?
The slides are not available for download.
Dear Ken,
I was wondering why we note “bribing a foreign public official” separately under types of bribery, given that this amounts to “bribing another person.” I’m guessing there’s a specific rationale and am hoping you could share/elaborate?
It is the approach taken by UK legislation.
The rationale is that it is potentially much more serious to be involved in bribing a foreign public official than bribing, say, someone in a private business. Amounts involved could be huge. Arguably, defrauding a country and its citizens is more immoral than defrauding private investors. In addition, if discovered, there is likely to be very adverse publicity.
Hallo sir, how can i download these lessons because to watch direct here its expensive due to our tariffs data the are so high. So guide me so that i can be able following offline.
Downloading is not possible – and in any case – downloading would use exactly the same amount of data! so it is actually better for you to watch them on demand – as you go!
You can save them with youtube setting ‘watch later’ to watch without connection

Hi,
I am preparing for the june exam and sitting for second time..I feel i lacked to test myself in model exams and see how i am able to apply what i learnt before the exam attempt..Can you advice on where to attempt model papers and how to evaluate myself?
Are there any suggested questions to practice after each SBL lecture ? I have seen them at the end of APM lectures but cant find in SBL lectures.
1st attempt what are critical factors for succes
Question practice and critical evaluation of your answers compared to the model answers.
Where possible, use common sense first then attach suitable theoretical models to that. Do not explain models: use them.
Good lecture
Critical Factors for Success are those few limited areas of a business that things must be done right for a company to gain competitive advantage
Failed 3 times, starting again!!!
Compared to the lecture notes. The six principles are missing the risk assessment point.
unable to watch lecture vidoes
Unable to access the SBL case study questions.
