ASQM 1: Why Audit Quality Still Fails

Most firms have implemented ASQM 1. They updated manuals. Built risk registers. Added monitoring policies. Yet regulators continue to identify audit quality deficiencies even in firms that say they have implemented ASQM 1. So the real issue is not whether you have a system of quality management. It is whether your ASQM 1 framework is genuinely operating, monitored, and influencing behaviour across your firm. In this episode, Wayne Basford and Judith Leung examine the most common failures they see when reviewing ASQM 1 frameworks. From generic risk registers and weak monitoring to documentation gaps and leadership incentives that quietly prioritise profit over quality. ASQM 1 is not a one-off compliance exercise. It is a continuous, risk-driven system of quality management designed to prevent audit failure before it happens.
