If auditors assess control risk at the maximum level, it means that they believe that the company's internal controls are not effective at preventing or detecting material misstatements. As a result, auditors will need to rely more on substantive testing to obtain assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatements. Therefore, they will perform a great deal of substantive testing during the audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence.
