Purpose: The paper examines auditors’ experiences with corporate governance (CG) in general and audit committees (ACs) in particular in the setting of a Polish two-tier board system and a capital market characterized by high ownership concentration, which therefore extends the research on CG practices of an economy beyond the well-researched Anglo-American model. Methodology: This study adopts a qualitative research approach by using interview data from fifteen interviews with auditors working with large publicly-listed companies in Poland to examine the relationships among auditors, Audit Committees, and CG. Findings: The auditors indicate that the CG environment has changed. However, the institution alization of an AC in Poland generally is the subject of coercive isomorphic pressures, which lead to its decoupling and transition toward a ritualistic role. Moreover, auditors report only some reliance on CG information in the planning phase and none in the field-testing or review phases. Originality: The findings differ from those of prior studies conducted predominantly in the USA and the UK, in which auditors reported far greater reliance on CG in all phases of the audit process. The two possible reasons for this difference in findings could be the different development stages between capital markets and different CG systems.

The paper concerns the issue of auditor fees and it presents the analysis of the auditors of Polish listed banks in the years 2009–2012. The study confirms the rule that the audit is primarily made by the entities with the largest market reputation and specialization in banking industry (“Big Four” firms). Total value of the remuneration of the auditor is dependent primarily on the size of the bank group (the number of consolidated entities), as well as the size of the bank in financial terms (equity and net income). The degree of use of the additional services varies greatly between banks. Entities that do not ordered additional services from their auditors (except audit and review of financial statements), pay higher fees for the audit. Thus, the analysis – despite its limitations – confirmed many observations made in the literature.

Przedmiotem opracowania są opinie audytorów finansowych dotyczące rozwoju ładu korporacyjnego i sprawozdawczości finansowej na alternatywnym rynku NewConnect na Giełdzie Papierów Wartościowych w Warszawie. Audytorzy wskazują, że spółki będące przedmiotem zainteresowania powoli wdrażają mechanizmy kontroli w odpowiedzi na potrzeby dostarczycieli kapitału, choć w tym względzie bardziej wymagające wydają się instytucje kredytujące, a nie giełda papierów wartościowych. Najważniejszym jednak problemem jest konieczność dodatkowych inwestycji w systemy sprawozdawczości finansowej i w kapitał ludzki przygotowujący sprawozdania na potrzeby zewnętrznych interesariuszy firmy.

The primary objective of this study was to collect opinions of the external auditors about corporate governance mechanisms and financial reporting on the alternative market New-Connect on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The auditors confirm the companies listed on the alternative market are slow in the implementation of control mechanisms. If they do so, they do it because of the pressure coming more from credit institutions rather from the stock exchange. The most important problem the companies face is connected with the need of additional investment in the financial and accounting systems as well as acquisition of human capital able to meet the increasing demands of the external stakeholders.
