Summary/Abstract: The paper presents changes in the area of auditing, introduced in Poland in accordance with Directive 2006/43/EC. The changes are intended to ensure high quality of services provided by statutory auditors as well as reliability and credibility of financial statements. Achievement of this aim should be easier thanks to introducing an independent body of public supervision and establishment of audit committees in entities of public interest. The article also undertakes assessment of the efficiency and effectiveness of the new legal and organizational solutions, largely based on the solutions used in the United States.
