Slide 14B.2
Principal–Agent Relationship.
Shareholders have appointed a board of directors
who govern a company on their behalf. The board
is responsible for arranging appropriate
management of the company and faithfully
reporting the results to the shareholders.
Information asymmetry between principals and
agents calls for the basic function of the auditor.
With banks everyone who has an interest in the
stability of the financial system (“public interest”)
are the principles
As everybody is a principal to an interrelated
complex of agents, the expectation that auditors
could reduce the information asymmetry
sufficiently is modified.

Governance Communications
Audit matters that need reporting include only those
matters that have come to the attention of the auditor as a
result of the performance of the audit.
Certain audit matters of governance interest are likely to
be of interest to banking supervisors, particularly where
those matters may require urgent action by the supervisor.
When required by the supervisory, legal, or regulatory
framework, or by a formal agreement or protocol, auditors
communicate directly to the banking supervisor
The auditor considers communicating such matters to the
banking supervisor when management or those charged
with governance do not do so.
