Audit of Financial Statements and Other Assurance Engagements
A16. This IES is applicable to Engagement Partners responsible for the audits of financial statements.
The professional competence that is demonstrated by the learning outcomes in Table A may also
be helpful when performing audits of other historical financial information in compliance with the
ISAs or other types of assurance and related services. Similarly, much of the professional
competence required for an audit of financial statements may be relevant to those Engagement
Partners responsible for assurance engagements relating to non-financial statement information,
such as environmental or social measures.
