New Frontiers in Auditing: Risk and Opportunities in the Blockchain Sector

The blockchain sector has introduced novel, technologically sophisticated and risky propositions that challenge auditors’ ability to offer assurance to this emerging sector. In this webinar, we will provide an overview of the challenges associated with auditing crypto assets. We will also introduce the audit risks associated with Decentralized Finance (DeFi) applications like non-fungible tokens (NFTs), smarts contracts and stablecoins. We will also discuss the cybersecurity risks associated with DeFi that would be relevant for auditors. We will close with a Q&A.

This webinar will be of special interest to audit practitioners who are currently (or are contemplating) offering assurance services to clients in the blockchain sector.
