KEY AUDIT MATTERS: A PERSPECTIVE BASED ON BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Abstract

Key audit matters (KAM), based on auditor judgment, are the most significant matters in the audit of financial statements of the current period. This study aims to determine the strategic diagram of key audit matters and to see the longitudinal evolution of KAM’s after the released draft in 2013. To do that, the authors use science mapping and co-word analysis based on data generated from the Web of Science in SciMAT. Results show that the motor theme for KAM’s is the “Audit Expectation Gap.” Also, the “client characteristic” is the next motor theme. Also, the authors think some sub-themes will emerge.
