*The Companies Act Regulation requires that State Owned Companies apply IFRS when
preparing their financial statements. However, where the Public Finance Management Act
(PFMA) requires otherwise, the PFMA should be followed.
**Regulation 28(2)(a) requires that any profit or non-profit company that, in the ordinary
course of business, holds assets (> R5 million) in a fiduciary capacity for a person who is not
related to the company must be audited. These include companies like banks, insurers and
trusts.
