IFAC (International Federations of Accountants) has updated the Guide to Using ISAs in the Audits of SMEs, Fourth Edition (the Guide) to help firms efficiently and proportionally apply ISAs on SME audits.

This fourth edition has been updated to reflect recent changes to ISAs, including International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) projects on:
