1.1   INTRODUCTION

According to Company and Allied Matter Act (CAMA) 1990, as amended to date “every limited liability companies must appoint an auditor to examine and report on the accounts prepared by the directors”. A point often mis-understood is that the auditors does not act for the directors, rather he acts on behalf of the shareholders.

The relationship between the shareholders and auditors can be considered as that of principals and agent (a point made in the case of Spacemen V. Evans 1868). Hence, his principal objective is to form an opinion on the truth and fairness of the accounts prepared by the directors.

However, it must be emphasized that nowadays the directors are seen as having a much wider responsibility especially where the shares are available to be the general public on a stock exchange. It then follows that this duties to own by the auditor is relied upon to set the seal on credible financial information.

Audited accounts are required to be filed with the registrar of companies so that the financial position of the business can be disclosed to the general public. Upon enquiry the council of the stock exchange reserves the right to refuse to grant a quotation to those companies whose accounts have attracted serious negative comment from the auditors. Also, the auditors’ recognized the need to adhere to certain standard of practice in order to demonstrate the high level of competence and regard for standard that his role demands.
