Appointment of statutory auditors in banks - obtention of declaration of indebtedness

Dear Sir,

Appointment of statutory auditors in banks – obtention of declaration of indebtedness

Reserve Bank of India had recently examined the issue relating to denial of statutory branch audit to an audit firm which was a wilful defaulter to a bank other than the one in which it was carrying out statutory audit. It has therefore been decided that banks, before appointing their statutory central / circle / branch auditors, should obtain a declaration in proforma 'A' given in Annexure to the effect that no credit facility (including guaranteeing any facilities availed of by third party) have been availed of by the proprietor / any of the partners of the audit firm / members of his / their families or by firm / company in which he / they are partners / directors from any other bank / financial institution.

2. In case, they have availed of any such facility from other banks / financial institutions the relative declaration should be furnished by the proprietor / main partner of the audit firm in proforma 'B' as detailed in the Annexure. The declaration in question may please be obtained by banks from the year of audit 2003-04 and onwards. If the audit firms refuse to give such declaration they may not be given statutory audit.

Please acknowledge receipt.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

(R.M.Thakkar)
General Manager.
