At the briefing, the following will be discussed: ▲ the status of actions and implications from this year's review and inspection results ▲ key supervisory directions ▲ key accounting issues for focused review of financial statements (investor agreements, issuance of convertible bonds, supplier financing agreements, investments in subsidiaries and associates) ▲ preparation guidelines for internal control over financial reporting anti-fraud control forms ▲ major deficiencies found in inspections of auditors of listed companies ▲ the revised auditor designation system.

There will also be time to collect in advance and answer questions and suggestions on major accounting issues such as internal control over financial reporting and the financial statement review system.
