On July 25, 2023, Singapore’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, Mr. Lawrence Wong, announced at the 60th anniversary dinner of the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants’s (ISCA) that the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) will re-evaluate the sector’s regulatory framework in a bid to keep pace with the changing business environment and maintain standards.

The Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) review will likely take some time, given the need to engage with key stakeholders and conduct public consultations before proposals are made to amend the law.

Mr Wong noted: “From time to time, lapses or fraud can still occur, and if they do, we will act swiftly to take the necessary regulatory actions, including against the auditors if their work falls short.”

He added that while no system was foolproof, the industry had to strive to uphold high standards and safeguard Singapore’s reputation as a trusted place of business.
