ABOUT THIS SURVEY

The Botswana Accountancy Oversight Authority (the Authority) is one of the fifty-five (55) jurisdictions in the world with Independent Audit Regulators, and the third in Africa along with Mauritius and South Africa.  The Authority was established through the Financial Reporting Act, 2010, (the Act) as the independent oversight body of the accounting and auditing profession. The principal objectives of the Authority are; to provide oversight to the accounting and auditing services and promote the standard, quality and credibility of providing financial and non-financial information by entities, including public interest entities (PIEs).
