Integrity (Section 111)

Fact

  • Integrity means being straightforward and honest in all professional relationships

Elaboration

  • No false or misleading information in reports.
  • No omission of important facts.
  • No corruption, no “spin”.
  • Judgements must be fair and based on facts, not personal interest.

Example

  • A client asks: “Can you ‘adjust’ the profit a bit so that we can get a bank loan?”

    • If the auditor agrees and changes the numbers to look better, that violates integrity.
    • If the auditor refuses and insists on true and fair figures, that shows integrity.

Ethical conduct towards clients:
  • Act with integrity and honesty
  • Be truthful, straightforward and fair in all dealings with clients.
  • Do not be associated with false, misleading or incomplete information.
  • Do not make promises that you know you cannot keep.
