Auditing is one of the core services that we provide to a variety of companies, regulated entities, government agencies and registered charities.
Our audit team enables your organisation to comply with all its statutory obligations but also adds value to benefit the performance of your business.
Our approach ensures that the significant issues which impact on your business are thoroughly assessed and defined, allowing you to focus on development and growth. Many of our clients operate in multiple jurisdictions and our membership of MSI Global Alliance means that, along with our Associates, we can take care of our clients auditing requirements in most countries.
We also provide a comprehensive internal audit function and are members of the Chartered Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) in the UK and Ireland.
