Fraud, Going Concern, and the Auditor’s Responsibility: What Caribbean Boards Must Ask

May 24, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Boards need sharper challenge, stronger scenario thinking, and better alignment between strategy, reporting, and...

Audit and Assurance in 2026: The Leadership Agenda

April 30, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Why boards, CEOs, CFOs, and audit committees are treating assurance as a strategic trust issue rather than a technical back-office function. 2026 is emerging as a hinge year for audit and assurance.
