ACCA,Audit Exemption Threshold,Companies

The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) has called for a phased approach to a proposed increase in the audit exemption threshold which would remove the requirement for companies with annual revenues of less than RM3 million to be independently audited.

The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants ( ACCA ) has called for a phased approach to a proposed increase in the audit exemption threshold which would remove the requirement for companies with annual revenues of less than RM3 million to be independently audited.

In its response to the latest consultation on the issue by the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM), ACCA said the expected surge in SMEs not subject to independent audits may have profound and enduring implications for the trustworthiness and integrity of the corporate sector, including supply chains, and the resilience of the broader economy. ACCA does, however, agree with the SSM’s view that it’s crucial to strike a balance between providing cost relief to smaller businesses and ensuring adequate oversight on financial reporting. It is suggesting a phased approach to the increase to RM3 million from the current level of RM100,000 over five years, starting with thresholds of RM500,000
