Delighted to have contributed to @ICAEW_CORP_FIN's panel discussion on @ICAEW's new guide, ‘Cyber security in Corporate Finance’. Helping raise awareness of #cyber risks facing #businesses and provide practical steps to tackle those risks during M&A and restructuring.

New report from @UKCCAB finds the #accountancy profession contributed £98 billion (€114 billion) to the UK and Irish economies in 2022, and supported more than 900,000 jobs. This highlights the key role we play supporting #businesses on so many fronts.

My interview in today's @FT - we must do all we can to make the #audit profession more attractive. If we want high-quality individuals in high-quality firms, regulation must be proportionate and professional judgements must be valued.

Read my reflections on #COP28 and the role the #accountancy profession has in leading the global transition to #netzero.

[Michael Izza @MichaelIzza]

The launch of the Perseus report at #COP28 this week is a pivotal moment. This will help #SMEs to fully engage in the drive to #netzero, by simplifying and automating emissions data in ways which are trusted and scalable.

(3/3) Almost six years on from Carillion, it’s important that reforms to #audit and #corporategovernance strike the right balance, not least to ensure that audit firms remain committed to involvement in the PIE market and the profession remains resilient.

[Michael Izza @MichaelIzza]

(1/3) Strongly agree with @KemiBadenoch's letter to @FRCnews that enhancing trust and confidence in corporate governance, reporting and #audit is critical to maintaining attractiveness of UK business to international investors. FRC has taken major steps to drive up standards…

(2/3) …and even without new legislation, the profession remains committed to working with the regulator to make voluntary changes. We strongly support proportionate standard setting and regulation, particularly re #SMEs, emphasising simplification and avoiding duplication…

[Michael Izza @MichaelIzza]

(4/4) …is firmly based on the high quality of corporate transparency, governance, reporting and #audit in this country. The government’s faint-hearted attitude to protecting and maintaining that reputation does the economy no favours.

[Michael Izza @MichaelIzza]

(1/4) Carillion’s collapse almost six years ago marked a watershed moment for UK #audit and #corporategovernance, but it appears that the government’s promise of comprehensive reform will remain unfulfilled due to a lack of political will...

[Michael Izza @MichaelIzza]

(3/4) …This comes hard on the heels of the government’s surprise decision last month to scrap new draft reporting regulations which the regulator and the #accountancy profession had been working on for years. The attractiveness of the UK as a place to invest and do business…
