The Saudi Organization for Chartered and Professional Accountants (SOCPA) has referred an unlicensed company to the Public Prosecution for advertising professional services without a license. SOCPA stated that legal action was taken after preliminary examination and investigation revealed that the company was promoting professional services regulated by SOCPA on its website without obtaining the necessary authorization. This move aims to strengthen SOCPA's regulatory role over the accounting and auditing profession and protect the profession and its beneficiaries from illegal practices.
