For Audit Committees today, the stakes have never been higher. The convergence of economic uncertainty, geopolitical instability, technological disruption, and heightened stakeholder expectations requires boards to embrace forward-looking and strategic oversight. As guardians of oversight, Audit Committees are under growing pressure to strengthen fgovernance, ensure financial reporting integrity, and navigate escalating risks.
To empower boards and assurance providers in meeting these challenges, the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA), together with the Institute of Internal Auditors Malaysia (IIA Malaysia), is proud to present the Audit Committee Conference 2025, a flagship platform for upskilling and future readiness. Themed “Navigating Risk, Driving Resilience”, the conference will be held on Monday, 29 September 2025 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.
Equipping Audit Committees for the Future
The programme is specially curated to help Audit Committee members enhance their oversight effectiveness and adapt to the changing governance landscape. Specifically, participants will gain timely insights on embedding ESG considerations into audit planning, particularly with the adoption of IFRS S1 and S2 sustainability disclosure standards, and on integrating climate and sustainability risks into assurance frameworks.
Another key focus is financial reporting integrity, with sessions examining the impact of evolving standards such as IFRS 18 and 19. Internal auditors and Audit Committees will enhance their ability to detect red flags, strengthen controls, and safeguard organisational trust in an increasingly volatile regulatory environment.
Highlight Sessions
The full-day programme opens with a keynote on Regulatory Oversight in a Disrupted Era, highlighting how Audit Committees can strengthen market confidence through robust disclosure, sustainability reporting, and governance. Other highlights include:
These sessions, together with interactive panel discussions, will provide directors, Audit Committee members, auditors, and governance professionals with strategic foresight and actionable solutions to elevate resilience, anticipate risks, and reinforce board leadership.
Don’t miss this opportunity to strengthen your governance capabilities and future-proof your organisation. By attending, your board will not only meet compliance requirements but also gain the confidence to lead with authority in an era of volatility and uncertainty. Group discounts are available for three or more participants from the same organisation.
