k. Risk assessment procedures and further audit procedures
The first 3 rows of the table in Table (i), are completed by the group auditor before providing Appendix F to the
component auditor. The group auditor obtains and copy and pastes all Significant risks of material misstatement
(Significant RMMs) communicated in the Group Auditor Instructions (GAIs) and potentially in Appendix C
(Component Instructions Report) into the table below. The remainder of the table in section (i) is completed by the
component auditor.
As group auditor is required to take responsibility for the nature, timing and extent of supervision of component
auditors taking into account areas of higher assessed risk, consider communicating, to the component auditors,
those RMMs for which the inherent risk is close to the higher end of the spectrum of inherent risk (e.g., include
Elevated RMMs in the table below).
As per the Audit Approach and Audit Manual, financial statement level risks are defined as engagement level risks
(ELRs) and assertion level risks are defined as inherent risks of material misstatement (IRMMs).
Sections (ii) and (iii) are completed by the component auditor. In addition, Appendix G2 (Risk assessment template)
may be used to document the results of risk assessment procedures.
Instructions to complete Table (i) to (iii)
Significant and Elevated1 risks of material misstatement (RMMs) identified by the group auditor - Table (i): the
first 3 rows of Table (i) are already completed by the group auditor. The component auditor completes the
remaining fields of Table (i).
Significant and Elevated RMMs identified by the component auditor in addition to those identified by the group
auditor - Table (ii): The component auditor completes the entire Table (ii).
Elevated RMMs identified by the component auditor, excluding Significant RMMs - Table (iii): The component
auditor completes the entire Table (iii).
There is no limit on the number of Significant RMMs or RMMs close to the higher end of the spectrum of inherent
risks (Elevated RMMs) identified. The tables below are guides to the information we require. If there are
insufficient columns to document the RMMs identified, copy the tables and add additional columns as needed.

For which the assessment of inherent risk is close to the upper end of the spectrum of inherent risk due to the degree to which inherent risk factors affect the
combination of the likelihood of a misstatement occurring and the magnitude of the potential misstatement should that misstatement occur; or that is to be
treated as a significant risk in accordance with the requirements of other SAs or ISAs.

institution or statutory health body;
b. Earned premiums in respect of insurance contracts, received for access to a pre

benefit cards.
Revenue is one of key performance indicators therefore the existence is the main
assertion to address.

they identify and assess fraud risk, as well as the nature, extent, and frequency of
management’s assessment of the risk that the financial statements may be
materially misstated due to fraud. Document your conclusion regarding the
adequacy of management’s fraud risk assessment.
Management has prepared a Risk Control Matrix and also has appropriate internal
controls in place.
b. Summarize the significant items noted during your component auditor engagement
team discussion regarding the susceptibility of the component’s financial statements
to material misstatements, including any fraud-related matters and related
responses. Include in your summary items such as the following:
