The Professional OversightBoard POB , formerly known as the Professional OversightBoard for Accountancy , is a United Kingdom UK regulatory body specializing in the accounting , financial audit auditing and actuary actuarial profession s. It is a part of the Financial Reporting Council FRC , the independent regulator of corporate governance and reporting in the UK.

The Board will then normally write to the complainant to tell them the outcome ... professional development of their members.
