Note: This sample letter is based on the example contained in ISRE 2400 (Revised). Additional material that may be included in the letter has been italicized and contained within brackets.[LETTERHEAD][Date]To [the appropriate representative of management or TCWG with the authority to sign on behalf of the entity][PersonEntity’s nameStreet addressCity, Country]Dear __________:You have requested that we review the general purpose financial statements of [entity’s name], which comprise the statement of financial position as at [December 31, 20XX], the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity, the cash flow statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. We are pleased to confirmour acceptance and our understanding of this review engagement by means of this letter.Our review will be conducted with the objective of expressing our conclusion on the financial statements that, if unmodified, will be as follows:“Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects, [or do not give a true and fair view of] thefinancial position of the company as at [date] and its financial performance for the year then ended in accordance with [the applicable financial reporting framework].”The form and content of our conclusion may need to be amended in light of the findings obtained from our review.Our ResponsibilitiesWe will conduct our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2400, Engagements to Review Historical Financial Statements. ISRE 2400 (Revised) requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the financial statements as a whole are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework. ISRE 2400 (Revised) also requires us to comply with relevant ethical requirements.A review of financial statements prepared in accordance with ISRE 2400 (Revised) is a limited assurance engagement. We will perform procedures, primarily consisting of making inquiries of management and others within the entity (as appropriate) and applying analytical procedures, and then evaluate the evidence obtained. We will also perform additional procedures if we become aware of matters that cause us to believe the financial statements as a whole may be materially misstated. These procedures are performedto enable us to express our conclusion on the financial statements in accordance with ISRE 2400 (Revised). The procedures selected will depend on what we consider necessary, applying our professional judgment based on our understanding of [entity’s name] and its environment and our understanding of the IFRS and its application in the industry context.A review is not an audit of the financial statements, therefore:(a) There is a commensurate higher risk than there would be in an audit that any material misstatements that exist in the financial statements reviewed may not be revealed by the review even though the review is properly performed in accordance with ISRE 2400 (Revised).(b) In expressing our conclusion from the review of the financial statements, our report on the financial statements will expressly disclaim any audit opinion on the financial statements.[Report Amendments]The form and content of our report may need to be amended in light of our findings obtained fromthe review.[Use and Distribution of our Report]The review engagement report on the financial statements is solely for the use of [entity’s name] andthose to whom our report is specifically addressed by us. We make no representations of any kind toany third party in respect of these financial statements and we accept no responsibility for their useby any third party.We ask that our name be used only with our consent and that any information to which we haveattached a communication be issued with that communication unless otherwise agreed to by us. [Inclusion of Financial Statements in Annual Reports or on a Website]Management is responsible for the accurate reproduction of the financial statements and other related information contained in an annual report or other public document (electronic or paper-based). This includes any incorporation by reference to either full or summarized financial statements that we have reviewed.
