Confidence begins
with independent scrutiny.
An external audit brings an independent perspective to financial statements prepared by management. Whether the trigger is a reporting obligation, a shareholder requirement or a financing discussion, the first step is to establish exactly what is required.
We clarify the entity, reporting period, applicable framework and appointment requirements before agreeing the engagement. The audit approach then follows the business, its risks and the evidence supporting the figures.
A clear scope.
Purpose behind every step.
Engagement & appointment
Confirm the reporting purpose, intended users, independence and any signing or appointment requirements.
Business & audit planning
Understand the activity, reporting risks and significant balances that shape the audit approach.
Financial-statement evidence
Examine records, reconciliations and supporting information relevant to the audit scope.
Estimates & disclosures
Consider significant estimates, accounting policies and disclosures in the financial statements.
Management discussions
Discuss information requests, matters arising and proposed adjustments with the responsible team.
Audit reporting
Form the audit conclusion from the evidence obtained and issue the appropriate report.
Useful findings.
Clear reporting.
An independent audit report
An opinion on the financial statements under the agreed engagement and applicable reporting framework.
A structured completion process
An organised route through outstanding information, management representations and final statements.
Matters communicated clearly
Relevant findings and control observations communicated to the appropriate people.
An audit provides reasonable assurance, rather than a guarantee that every error or fraud will be identified. Management remains responsible for the financial statements and underlying records.
Bring the requirement.
We’ll map the records.
Draft financial statements, trial balance, general ledger, bank reconciliations, receivable and payable schedules, inventory and fixed-asset records, prior-year accounts and the relevant reporting request.
Before work begins
We clarify the reporting purpose, scope and intended users.
Fees and timing depend on complexity, record readiness, access and the work agreed.
Any independence, eligibility or appointment requirements are considered before acceptance.

Specific questions.
Straightforward answers.
How do external and statutory audit differ?
External describes an audit performed independently of the company. Statutory describes an audit required by applicable law or regulation. The same financial-statement audit may be both; the obligation and appointment requirements must be checked for the entity.
Does every UAE company have the same audit requirement?
No. Legal form, licensing jurisdiction and other applicable requirements can affect the obligation and auditor appointment. Share the company licence and relevant request so these can be clarified.
Can you guarantee an unmodified audit opinion?
No. The opinion follows the evidence and the financial statements. It cannot be promised before the audit is performed.
