Personal Affairs of RSM Indonesia Auditors Continue, Challenges of Professional Ethics Re-emerge

JAKARTA - The Tangerang District Court postponed the mediation trial for the divorce of RSM Indonesia auditor, Alpriado Osmond, because the defendant was not present in person and the completeness of the mediation power of attorney had not been fulfilled.

The mediation is scheduled to be rescheduled on March 2, 2026.

This adds to the list of personal legal issues that have been decided by the court, including a provisional criminal sentence in 2024 in the KDRT case.

In addition, there are other police reports that are still in the handling stage.

From a business and governance perspective, the series of cases places attention on the importance of ethical compliance and the discipline of the auditor profession.

The reputation of individual auditors often intersects with the reputation of the firm, especially in the professional services industry that relies on trust.

A number of practitioners assess that professional organizations and public accounting firms need to ensure that the ethics oversight mechanism is effective, in order to mitigate the risk of reputation and maintain industry integrity.
