EP 200 IMPLEMENTATION GUIDANCE (EP 200 IGs)
ISCA sets standards and guidance relating to professional ethics which are issued as Ethics Pronouncements (EPs). EPs set out high quality ethical standards, including the fundamental principles of ethics, for professional accountants. These are integral for professional accountants to act in the public interest. The process in setting and revising EPs is robust, which promotes public confidence.
From time to time, ISCA may also issue Implementation Guidances to support the accountancy profession in implementing the requirements in EP 200.
