6.The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has released a framework for bank auditors that proposes enforcement action on auditors if they are found lapsing in their duties. According to RBI, the grades enforcement action framework for bank auditors is “with a view to institute a transparent mechanism to examine accountability of SAs (statutory auditors) in a consistent manner”.7. RBI targeting auditors is a departure from its earlier stance where it typically held only banks responsible for asset classification and bad loan divergences observed during inspection. This means that in instances of divergences, bank auditors too should be questioned, examined and later penalized if found lapsing.8. In 2017, the central bank asked three private banks—Yes Bank Ltd, Axis Bank Ltd and ICICI Bank Ltd—to disclose bad loan divergences, while the conduct of bank auditors was taken on by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in India (ICAI). 9. “If the audit quality or conduct of a statutory auditor is not found satisfactory, the RBI will enforce action against them by way of not approving their appointments for undertaking statutory audit of banks at a specified period,” said RBI in the circular. 10. Lapses that will lead to penal action included oversight in carrying out audit assignments resulting in misstatement of financial statements, giving wrong certifications and wrong information in the long form audit report, misconduct while on audit assignments and any other violations of RBI directions, said the banking regulator in the circular.
