Case study

Extended audit reporting

Deloitte was the first firm to publish an extended audit report in May 2013, for Vodafone, in advance of the Financial Reporting Council’s rules coming into effect on 4 June 2013. In FY14, we have sought to build on this momentum, identifying and reporting on risks in our extended audit reports.

In the financial year to 31 May 2014, we issued 73 enhanced audit reports for the FTSE350, all of which are now in the public domain. These reports discussed 290 risks of material misstatement and included our audit response to those risks, important detail that shareholders may not have previously known. The significance of this step forward is clear: explicitly reporting on risks means better information for investors and the wider capital markets.
