    Hi tutor,

    I have a question about the rotation of audit partners on a listed client. The Kaplan notes say that it must be done within 7 years but I have seen in exam questions that 5 years have been quoted. Which is The correct answer?

    The ACCA rule book states:

    290.149 In respect of an audit of a public interest entity, an individual shall not be a key
    audit partner for more than seven years.

    This is in line with the IESBA Code of Ethics.

    If you are looking at old questions, they probably say 5 years because the limit used to be that. Answers are not updated for changes of rules.
