    When a client staff joins the audit firm, it is understandable that a self review threat arises since he may be reviewing the work he has done at the client.

    but how does a self interest threat arise when a audit staff joins the client? this is not obvious to me.

    can u explain please?

    thank u

    I don’t think it’s obvious either. In fact, I’m not sure its right!

    Certainly there is self-review, but I think the next threat is familiarity as the autitor would be auditing work done by ex-colleagues.
