2022 PCAOB Accomplishments: Enhancing Our Inspections
To protect investors, the PCAOB is working to enhance our inspections. Each year on average, the PCAOB inspects over 200 audit firms and reviews over 800 audits from across the globe to ensure they are following our standards. Inspections are one of the most important tools the PCAOB has to protect investors. They make sure investors can trust the information they receive. And they shine a light on problems that can lead to investigations and enforcement actions.
Our inspections team is constantly adjusting to be responsive to new and emerging risks across the globe to ensure our inspections meet the challenges of today’s global economy.
