IESBA June 2025 Meeting Highlights

The IESBA considered an update from the Technology Working Group (TWG) on recent developments. The update included key insights from the SAC and IESBA-JSS meetings held in May 2025. The discussions emphasized the growing role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the profession, including related ethical challenges such as automation bias and overreliance on AI.

The IESBA also received an introduction to a proposed IESBA Chatbot, a Microsoft Copilot-based tool designed to support users in navigating the IESBA Code.

The IESBA will receive a further update from the TWG at its September 2025 meeting
