This code was produced by: Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW)
The Code applies to eight audit firms that together audit about 95% of the companies listed on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange. For these firms, the code sets a benchmark for good governance which other audit firms may wish to voluntarily adopt in full or in part.
