The Peer Review Board (PRB) has developed a proposed strategy for 2027–2030 to advance audit quality and strengthen public trust. This strategy is designed to guide standard setting, implementation support, stakeholder engagement, and ongoing modernization of the peer review program.
It reflects key trends shaping the profession, including rapid technological change, increasing regulatory complexity, evolving firm structures, and expanding assurance needs in areas such as sustainability and cybersecurity.
The strategy also emphasizes the importance of aligning auditing, attestation, ethics, independence, and peer review requirements, while strengthening operational resilience and improving how the PRB delivers its work.
