BAĞIMSIZ DENETİM KALİTESİNİ ETKİLEYEN FAKTÖRLERİN BULANIK DEMATEL YÖNTEMİ İLE DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Çalışmada sermaye piyasalarının istikrarı için önemli bir unsur olan bağımsız denetim kalitesini etkileyen faktörlerin mesleğinde tecrübeli bağımsız denetçilerinin görüşleri alınarak çok kriterli karar verme tekniklerinden Bulanık DEMATEL yöntemi ile analiz edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaca uygun tespit edilen ana ve alt faktörler Türkiye’nin önemli denetim firmalarında görev yapmakta olan mesleklerinde tecrübeli 29 bağımsız denetçi tarafından değerlendirilmiştir. Değerlendirme sonucunda bağımsız denetim kalitesini etkileyen en etkili ana faktör olarak çevresel (dış) faktörler tespit edilmiştir. Bu durumun ağırlıklı olarak yasal çevre açısından etkili olduğu ayrıca tespit edilmiştir. Bu tespit dünyada ortaya çıkan bağımsız denetim skandallarının geri planındaki eksik ve zayıf kalan yasal düzenleme yetersizliği ile örtüşmektedir. Çalışmada ayrıntılı olarak sunulmuş olan bağımsız denetim kalitesini etkilediği kararlaştırılan ana ve alt faktörlerin kendi aralarındaki göreceli önemlerinin bağımsız denetim kalitesinde kaliteyi artırmak adına yol gösterici olması umulmaktadır

EVALUATION OF FACTORS AFFECTING INDEPENDENT AUDIT QUALITY BY USING FUZZY DEMATEL METHOD

This study investigates the factors affecting the quality of independent audit by taking the opinions of experienced independent auditors and analyzing the responses with the Fuzzy DEMATEL method. For this purpose, potential main and sub-factors were evaluated by 29 auditors that work at major auditing firms in Turkey. As a result of the evaluation, environmental (external) factors have been identified as the main factor affecting independent audit quality. It has also been determined that this situation is predominantly influential in terms of the legal environment. This determination coincides with the inadequate and weak legal regulation in the background of independent audit scandals emerging in the world. It is hoped that the relative importance of the main and sub-factors determined to affect the independent audit quality, which are presented in detail in the study, will guide in order to increase the quality of the independent audit
