EP 100 was updated by ISCA on 14 August 2018 to reflect the changes to the provisions on long association of senior personnel with an audit or assurance client. The provisions deal with familiarity and self-interest threats created when the firm uses the same senior personnel on an audit or assurance engagement over a long period of time.

In this regard, SGX has started the process to amend the listing rules to refer to the relevant Code of Professional Conduct and Ethics for Public Accountants and Accounting Entities issued by the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA Code) for the requirements. SGX’s Consultation Paper is expected to be issued in early 2019.
