IESBA and IAASB Joint Stakeholder Survey
This joint stakeholder survey seeks input from a wide range of stakeholders regarding:
- IESBA’s and IAASB’s strategic positioning;
- Key environmental trends shaping the future of audit, assurance, ethics, and independence; and
- Opportunities for joint or parallel IESBA and IAASB action.
Survey responses will inform IESBA and IAASB as they develop their respective Consultation Papers for their Strategies and Work Plan (targeted for the end of 2026).
Responses are requested through an online survey (see below). Stakeholders may respond to all questions or only those most relevant to their perspectives. All responses will form part of the public record and will be published on this web page in due course and in accordance with the Boards’ due process.
Responses are requested by Friday, May 15, 2026.
