Abstract
Another trip around the sun? How does the auditor orbit the audit engagement? The primary objective of any audit engagement is to gather sufficient relevant audit evidence for the auditor to render an opinion on the financial statements. Previous research has illustrated that the compulsory rotation of audit firms yields positive effects on audit quality. The rationale behind auditor rotations lies in their potential to enhance audit quality by mitigating the risk of auditors becoming excessively familiar with clients, which could compromise their independence and impartiality.
