The ROSC- Accounting & Auditing review process involved an assessment of local accounting and auditing standards, and actual practices and analysis of effectiveness of the mechanisms for ensuring compliance with the formal standards. The review used a diagnostic template developed by the Bank to facilitate a self-assessment by a National Steering Committee established by the Minister of Economic Development, Financial Services, and Corporate Affairs. The self-assessment results, complemented by the findings of a due diligence exercise conducted by Bank staff, were used in preparing this report. The policy recommendations of this report specifically focus on strengthening the monitoring and enforcement arrangements through a proposed Financial Reporting Council. This body will develop, and disseminate guidelines on international accounting and auditing standards, monitor compliance with financial reporting requirements, conduct practice review of the auditors and audit firms, and enforce actions against infractions. For expediting the implementation of IAS and ISA, there is a need for bolstering professional education and training arrangements. 2013-07-25T14:49:47Z 2013-07-25T14:49:47Z 2003-04-02 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2003/04/6572784/report-observance-standards-codes-rosc-mauritius-accounting-auditing http://hdl.handle.net/10986/14551 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank Washington DC Economic & Sector Work :: Accounting and Auditing Assessment (ROSC) Economic & Sector Work Africa Mauritius
