Assurance for Digital ReportingWorkshop 2.1.1November 15, 2006
Your panel’s challenge: Regulators and the public digital information will have the same assurance and integrity as today’s paper report. If assurance is not provided, it could hinder the adoption of digital reporting as a tool for electronically exchanging information. If the accounting profession is not able to provide assurance, other parties could step in. Regulators demanding auditors to provide assurance on electronic filings of financial statements. Governments are asking the profession to deal with audit and assurance issues related to electronic filings and provide the assurance needed by users. Additionally, XBRL, can facilitate a more efficient and effective audit by providing a consistent method of capturing and interrogating business information. This not only enhances audit delivery but also creates new service opportunities. Assurance for Digital Reporting
