Financial statement audit services

We provide Assurance advice to public and private sector organisations, building credibility around reporting and disclosures to stakeholders. We combine strong technical capabilities with relevant industry experience to provide assurance over a broad range of areas such as:
- effectiveness of internal controls
- confidence with key performance indicators (KPIs)
- management of contractual arrangements
- merger and acquisition (M&A) activity
- regulatory reporting and compliance issues
- effectiveness and reliability of corporate reporting.
Better business reporting
We help businesses achieve efficient capital allocation, streamlined reporting processes, reduced reporting costs and enhanced organisation clarity. In particular, we help organisations embed material sustainability-related financial matters and a tighter reporting strategy to explain how an organisation uses all its key resources and relationships to deliver sustainable value over time.
ESG assurance consulting services
We deliver market insight, offer education sessions and provide financial reporting alignment assessment, ready-for-assurance assessments and ESG assurance.
Financial reporting and standards services
We provide pragmatic audit advice on issues in areas such as financial instruments, impairment of assets, recognition of revenue, leases, consolidation of business entities and financial statement presentation.
Regulatory audit consulting services
We can provide verification of financial and other information reported to regulators, for organisations obligated to or seeking out verification independently. Regulatory audit consulting services include:
