The Professional Oversight Board, part of the Financial Reporting Council, has published its annual report to the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills for the year to 31 March 2010: see here (pdf). This reports on the Board's responsibilities and activities and largely reproduces information already published. However, two items are worth noting. First, the Board concludes that certain aspects of regulatory activity at some recognised bodies gives it "significant concerns". Second, with regard to audit choice, the Board notes that the majority of the Market Participants Group's recommendations have now been implemented but there is limited evidence that they have had a significant impact on market concentration and the risks thereby arising.
