• Evolution of Module

    • AU-A.2.1

      This Module was first issued as Module AU (Audit Firms) in January 2005, as part of the first release of Volume 2 (Islamic banks) of the BMA Rulebook. It was subsequently reissued in full in July 2006 (and renamed "Auditors and Accounting Standards").

    • AU-A.2.2

      The reissued Module was one of several Modules modified to reflect the introduction of the BMA's new integrated license framework. Although the new framework did not change the substance of the requirements contained in this Module, the Module was re-issued in order to simplify its drafting and layout and align it with equivalent Modules in other Volumes of the BMA Rulebook.

    • AU-A.2.3

      This Module is dated July 2006. Pages that are subsequently changed in this Module are updated with the end-calendar quarter date in which the change was made: Chapter UG-3 provides further details on Rulebook maintenance and version control.

    • AU-A.2.4
