Summary/Abstract: The article presents issues deserving special attention in the area of auditing the financial statements of credit institution. Without a doubt, these are the financial instruments, including credit exposures. To properly audit these instruments it is required to verify the accuracy of the valuation. Such verification in the case of credit exposures is preceded by appropriate category qualification followed by impairment write-off determined considering the established security. Thus, the audit process is complex and requires assessment by the auditor of exogenous and endogenous factors affecting the operation of credit institutions.
