2023 Audit Committee Transparency Barometer

Over the last 10 years, the Center for Audit Quality (CAQ) has worked with Ideagen Audit Analytics to create an annual Audit Committee Transparency Barometer. The barometer measures the year-over-year comparison of disclosures for S&P 500, S&P mid-cap, and S&P small-cap companies. The barometer covers key areas, including audit committee duties and composition; auditor evaluation and oversight; audit firm and lead partner selection; auditor compensation; cybersecurity; and environmental, social and governance (ESG).  

In this article, Audit Analytics further examines disclosure trends related to transparency in audit committee proxy statements over a 10-year period.
