| DFSA Signs Agreement With US Audit Regulator |
by Lorys Charalambous, Tax-News.com, Cyprus
Thursday, February 02, 2012
The Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) has entered into a Statement
of Protocol with the US Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB).
The Statement is the first bilateral agreement the DFSA has established with
an audit regulator following the change to the Dubai International Financial
Centre’s (DIFC) Regulatory law. The change allowed agreements like this
to be signed for the first time.
The PCAOB is the US agency responsible for federal oversight of the audits
of public companies. There are currently eight US regulated Firms in the DIFC,
and the PCAOB already conducts audits jointly with the DFSA. This agreement
facilitates the sharing of information between the two regulators.
Paul M Koster, Chief Executive of the DFSA, said: “This initiative extends
the DFSA’s collegiate links with regulators in the US. The DFSA already
has a Memorandum of Understanding with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
and with the four federal banking supervisors, as well as other US regulators
in the context of our multi-lateral arrangements.”
Koster also stated that: “The ability of audit regulators to co-operate
and share information is critical in the current environment when the need to
protect investors and the public interest has never been more important”.
