We also addressed the risk of management override of intemal controls. including testing joumals and appropriateness of other entries in the nominal ledger, Teviewing transactions around the end of the reporting period,. and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of malgrial misstatement due to fraud. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all iThegularities. including those leading lo a material misstatement in the financial slalemenls or non-compliance with regulation. Thi$ risk increases the more that cempliae with a law or regulal#)n is removed from the events and transactions fefiected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-c¢Jmpliance.
