The ongoing global economic crisis presents new challenges for the auditing profession, as audit clients are increasingly exposed to financial instability and a heightened risk of bankruptcy. In response, auditors must enhance their application of professional scepticism and ensure the collection of sufficient and appropriate audit evidence. A key approach to achieving this is using audit sampling – employing both statistical and non-statistical methods. When applied in a complementary manner, these techniques can significantly improve audit quality, reduce subjectivity in auditor judgment, and contribute to the formulation of more reliable and objective audit opinions.

  Corruption is one of the most complex and enduring problems faced by modern societies, negatively affecting the functioning of governments, the economy and society as a whole.

Corruption is one of the most complex and enduring problems faced by modern societies, negatively affecting the functioning of governments, the economy and society as a whole. Corruption is not limited to financial irregularities, but extends to abuses of power, violation of laws and public interest, and poor provision of services to citizens. The consequences of corruption are many and include a decrease in citizens' trust in institutions, the worsening of social inequality, but also the delay in the development of societies. However, technological progress and the development of information and communication technologies (ICT) offer new possibilities to combat this scourge. In particular, the implementation of e-Government at government level aims to enhance transparency, improve the efficiency of public services and promote citizens' participation in the political process. Through e-government, state procedures become more transparent, documents and transactions are digitised, thus reducing the likelihood of corruption by making it easier for competent bodies and citizens to monitor and control. This creates a healthier and more reliable environment for the performance of public sector tasks and enhances intergovernmental credibility.
