ASIC surveillance shows financial reporting and audit quality continues to fall short

Why this matters

The document is ASIC's surveillance report (REP 842) on financial reporting and audit quality, with data on reviews, findings, and remediation. Its content is cross-cutting across listed companies, RSEs, and audit firms, so sector is General. The core subject is the accuracy and disclosure of financial reports and the quality of audit work on judgement-heavy areas, which maps to Reporting & Disclosure. Urgency is medium because it sets follow-up actions and timelines (remediation monitoring in 2026-27, firm action plans) without new binding rules. Firm types are All Firms because the findings apply to preparers and auditors broadly.
