EU Statutory Audit Directive (Directive 2006/43/EC) A22a: Cooling-off before former auditors join the audited entity

What does A22a require?

A statutory auditor or key audit partner may not take up a key management position, join the audit committee (or equivalent body) or become a non-executive administrative or supervisory member of the audited entity until at least one year, or two years for a public-interest entity, after ceasing to act on the engagement. Other employees and partners of the auditor or firm who are personally approved as statutory auditors, and other persons under their control directly involved in the audit, observe a one-year cooling-off period for the same positions.
