Ask the Tutor ACCA AA

conflict of interest

JJiya0245y ago
Dear Professor, I am curious to know how conflict of interest arises when service organisation's and client's external auditors are the same? From the point of confidentiality I understand, but not quite so from the point of view of Objectivity. Many thanks

This is definitely not AA. Are you thinking if the audit firm is providing a Type 1/2 assurance report on the service organisation and also the auditor of customers of the service organisation?
