Auditing Digital Assets — An Auditor's Handbook

Eighteen chapters on ownership, control and evidence in digital asset holdings: what the evidence proves, what it cannot, and where the judgement stays with the auditor. Every proposition is tied to the auditing standard, statute, case or ATO guidance that supports it, with a dated citation register.

  • Existence, ownership and control — three assertions the word "holdings" collapses into one
  • Platform custody, counterparty exposure and separation
  • Valuation, records, fraud indicators, experts, special asset classes, tax
  • The engagement lifecycle and a dated regulatory watchlist
