In this episode, we discuss how firms can maintain momentum on the International Standard of Quality Management, as well as changes in preparation and filing as a result of the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act. We also hear about ICAEW’s new podcast, The Tax Track, and changes to the Engaging in Public Practice certificate.

Philippa Lamb is joined by Alex Russell, Head of Audit and Assurance Strategy; Sally Baker, Head of Corporate Reporting Strategy; Lindsey Wicks, Senior Technical Manager for Tax Policy; and Chris Greenhalgh, Manager in Professional Standards.
