The code of ethics aims to help insolvency practitioners meet their professional and ethical obligations.
A new Insolvency Code of Ethics was issued on 2 March 2020, with an effective date of 1 May 2020. The current code will remain in effect until 1 May 2020.
The code has been updated following a consultation on possible revisions and to adopt the drafting format used by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA). The accountancy Recognised Professional Bodies (RPBs) use the IESBA approach in their main ethical codes.
