About the Webinar

Clients coming and going is a part of life in public practice. Applying an ethical perspective to client movement either way is required and assists in ensuring a smooth transition for all parties concerned. This session looks into the processes that support an ethical attitude to both client engagement and disengagement, including:

  • Are there any ethical requirements when actively pursuing new clients?
  • What are the ethical obligations when:
    • engaging a new client from another accountant?
    • responding to a proposed accountant’s enquiries to assist with their decision on whether to engage your former client?
    • a response is not received to an ethical clearance letter you send?
  • Tips for when a response to an ethical clearance letter may risk being interpreted as defaming the outgoing client
  • Situations where engaging a new client may pose a threat to a practitioner complying with APES 110
  • How do the ethical requirements differ when the incoming or outgoing client involves an audit?
  • Ethical requirements for a departing employee commencing practice who:
    • intends approaching the employer’s clients
    • is approached by employer’s clients
  • Are there any ethical requirements to consider when providing services for recurring clients each year?
  • Practical examples
