Abstract

Malaysian Private Entity Reporting Standard (MPERS) serves as a new reporting framework to private entities and significant milestones to the capital market. This enables the entities to assert the financial statements with full compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS). Thus, the focus of this paper is to discuss the conceptual framework on the impact of external pressure and environmental uncertainty on the quality of financial reporting by Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Malaysia. The effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on environmental uncertainty has an impact on the quality of financial reporting. It is expected that the Malaysia’s authority and regulator will anticipate the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, given the outbreak has created disruption in all business chains including the SMEs in Malaysia
