Buy funds from fund companies, which hold shares of listed companies, and now certified public accountants audit listed companies. Will it affect independence?
This will also affect independence. Although it does not affect independence on the surface, think about it carefully. If this situation is allowed, then auditors may collude with the audited units, issue false audit reports and whitewash statements. If the financial situation of listed companies is good, it may affect the income of fund companies and indirectly affect the interests of auditors. In this case, independence may be affected.
