Negative Assurance

Method used by the Certified Public Accountant to assure various parties, such as bankers and stockbrokers, that financial data under review by them is correct. Negative assurance tells the data user that nothing has come to the CPA's attention of an adverse nature or character regarding the financial data reviewed. This type of assurance is normally given to investment bankers and the SEC when the financial data are being used for stock and bond issuance. In addition, this assurance is given whenever a CPA is asked to comment on financial statements upon which a previous Audit Opinion has been rendered. (This type of assurance is unacceptable for the basic financial statements on which a certifying audit has been performed.)

Q- While reviewing the published financial statements of a listed co audited by you, it was found that a note to the fin statements as contained in the signed copy available in ur working paper is missing. the amount involved in the note was not material.

Discuss the auditor's responsibility in such case?
