In 1982 my professional (ICAS) practice career took me to The Big Apple a few months before the incorporation of ACAUS. I went to work with Roger Musson, the first ACAUS President following on from founder Angus McDowell.

If the audit profession in South Africa is serious about restoring trust it will need to reassert the primacy of professional scepticism and independence.
There needs to be a balance between radical thinking and practical solutions. Greater clarity and transparency in the profession will ultimately result in a regime that allows auditors to better assess, assure and inform. Only then can real change come about.
