Time to Endorse the ISAs for European Use: The Emerging Markets' Perspective

Metka Duhovnik

Accounting in Europe, 2011, vol. 8, issue 2, 129-140

Abstract: The paper aims to support the endorsement of the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) from the perspective of an emerging market economy. Pointing to the problems facing the Slovenian audit market as an example of a small market, the paper tries to demonstrate the advantages of endorsing the ISAs for both emerging market economies and the European market as a whole. At the same time, it stresses the importance of a unified audit approach for the overall quality of auditing in Europe, and of treating emerging market economies as an equal partner in international bodies that issue auditing and accounting standards as a necessary condition for those standards to also be applicable to a less developed market environment.
