In certain circumstances financial statements may contain information about a matter which has been appropriately presented or disclosed, but which the auditors deem to be fundamental to the users’ understanding of the financial statements as a whole.
The auditors will draw attention to this matter in their auditors' report of their opinion.
This part of the auditors' opinion is known as an ‘emphasis of matter’.
