Florence Wong, Head of Investigation and Compliance: “Our report highlights the critical areas where misconduct and non-compliance continue to challenge the integrity of financial reporting and auditing. Compliance with laws, regulations and professional standards is the cornerstone of public trust and reputation in the financial markets. The AFRC spares no efforts in taking decisive regulatory actions against misconduct and non-compliance to protect the public interest and maintain the credibility of the accounting profession.”
Janey Lai, CEO of the AFRC: “Our investigation revealed that misconduct and non-compliance generally stem from a disregard for good governance. Identifying the root cause is the first step to addressing misconduct, which includes examining the corporate governance of firms and companies and ensuring a proper tone has been set by the leadership that emphasises the importance of fostering a culture of quality auditing. Promoting governance at the fundamental level is key for maintaining public trust in financial reporting as well as for the healthy development of the accounting profession.”
Dr Kelvin Wong, Chairman of AFRC: “With our persistent effort since 2019, we are encouraged to observe initial signs of improvement in the quality of financial reporting and auditing. It is imperative for the leaders of the accounting profession to cultivate a firm-wide culture of effective governance, compliance, and continuous learning that is conducive to improvement in audit quality. Robust governance and market development are complementary. They solidify public trust on the accounting profession, and thereby create positive ripple effects that will reinforce Hong Kong’s standing as a leading international financial centre.”
