Background

 

Periodical audit is one of the tools to ascertain the level of compliance among stock brokers of the exchanges. The scope of audit should cover the existence, scope and efficiency of the internal control system, compliance with the provisions of the SEBI Act, 1992, Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, SEBI (Stock brokers and Sub- brokers) Regulations, 1992, circulars issued by SEBI, agreements, KYC requirements, Bye-Laws of the Exchanges, data security and insurance in respect of the operations of the stock brokers/clearing members.

 

SEBI has issued circulars asking stock exchanges  to direct stockbrokers/trading members/clearing members to carry out complete internal audit on a half yearly basis by chartered accountants, company secretaries or cost and management accountants who are in practice and who do not have any conflict of interest.

 

The programme

 

This executive education programme is offered by NISM, in co-ordination with BSE & NSE, for chartered accountants, cost accountants and company secretaries. It aims at helping them carry out effective internal audit of the broker’s books in order to satisfy the requirements of SEBI and the exchanges. The sessions discuss audit procedure and areas that the auditor should examine with references to what books, documents and data are to be checked. Programme faculty has been drawn from SEBI and the two main exchanges. Duration of the programme would be two days.
