Abstract
Given globalization, increased competition, and technological advances, audit firms send audit procedures to other countries. This paper examines bank loan officers' perceptions of audit risk and quality when audit tasks are performed in locations other than that of the principal auditor. Our findings indicate that bank loan officers perceive an increase in audit risk as audit procedures move further away from the lead auditor. However, they do not believe that these procedures significantly affect audit quality. Managers and those charged with governance can benefit from these procedures without fearing that lenders will perceive their audited financial statements diminished in quality.
