    Hi sir,

    What are the scenarios/examples

    That there are no safegurads which could be sufficient to reduce the threat to an acceptable level.

    Is it only if the matter is significant we should conclude this?

    See the rulebook for the conceptual framework approach (100.6-100.9).

    “Prohibitions” (e.g. a member of the audit team cannot hold a direct financial interest in an audit client) mean that there is no “acceptable level” for such a threat – it has to be eliminated. (Safeguards are irrelevant.)
