About the ACI

Recognising the increasing importance of governance issues, the Audit Committee Institute Ireland (ACI) has been established to serve both audit committee members and all non executive directors to help them to adapt to their changing roles.

Historically, those charged with governance responsibilities have largely been left on their own to keep pace with rapidly changing information relating to governance, remuneration, audit issues, accounting and financial reporting. Supported by ÀÖÓ㣨Leyu£©ÌåÓý¹ÙÍø, the ACI provides knowledge to non-executive directors and a resource to which they can turn at any time for information, or to share knowledge.

Our primary objective is to communicate with all senior business people to enhance their awareness and ability to implement effective board processes.

The ACI aims to serve as a useful, informative resource for members in such key areas as:

  • Governance, technical and regulatory issues
  • Sounding board for enhancing all board committeesâ€� processes and policies
  • Surveys of trends and concerns

Audit Committee Handbook

The Audit Committee Handbook serves as a trusted resource, offering essential insights and best practices to help audit committees navigate their evolving responsibilities. The latest edition builds upon its strong foundation, providing a comprehensive guide to governance, financial oversight, and effective audit committee processes. With an emphasis on practical, non-prescriptive guidance, this edition enables audit committees and boards to strengthen their decision-making and adapt to emerging challenges.

Supplemented with a fully updated set of ready-to-use appendices, the handbook continues to be a valuable reference for audit committee members seeking clarity, confidence, and practical support in fulfilling their critical oversight role.
