Westpac tenders external audit services
Westpac announced today that it has commenced a tender for
its external audit services. The decision to tender the audit reflects best practice for audit firm rotation.
Westpac’s external auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) was
appointed by shareholders in 2002. Individuals who were partners of PwC or its antecedent firms have been the external auditors since
1968. Due to their tenure as the Group’s external auditor, PwC has not been invited to participate in the tender.
