Document background
The Auditors Code of Ethics serves as the foundational document governing professional conduct and ethical responsibilities for auditors practicing in Malaysia. This code is essential for maintaining high professional standards and public trust in the audit profession, while ensuring compliance with both local and international requirements.

The code should be referenced when making professional judgments, accepting engagements, dealing with conflicts of interest, and maintaining independence in audit relationships.
