Thi5 risk increasesthe more that con)pliance with a law or regulation is removed from the cvcnts and transactions r¢tl¢cted irb the financial stateinents. as we will be less likely to become aware of in8tances of non-compliance. Thc risk is also greater rettarding irregulariiies occurring due to fvaud rather ihan eTror, as ftewl involves inteniional concealmeni. forgery, collusion, omission or mi$repr¢seniation.
