Temporary Pause on New Audit Firm Application Review

Important notice regarding audit firm application

The PSCI will temporarily hold off on reviewing new audit firm applications while we finalize key updates to the audit firm agreement and fee structure. This pause allows us to ensure that all new and existing firms will be onboarded under a renewed, consistent framework once the updated agreement is in place.

Timeline

We expect the fee structure and renewed agreement to be finalized in Q4 2026, with the terms taking effect for all firms in January 2027. We will resume application reviews as soon as the new agreement is finalized.
