EU Statutory Audit Directive (Directive 2006/43/EC) A22b: Assessment before accepting or continuing an engagement

What does A22b require?

Before accepting or continuing a statutory audit engagement the auditor or firm assesses and documents compliance with the independence requirements of Article 22, the threats to independence and the safeguards applied, whether it has the competent staff, time and resources to perform the audit properly, and, for a firm, whether the key audit partner is approved as a statutory auditor in the Member State requiring the audit.
