Audit

Client credibility. Stakeholder confidence. Statutory requirements. There are many reasons for performing audits. Wherever and whatever you are reporting, audits conducted by CLA Global member firms take a systematic and deep look into business financials and processes. They can reveal valuable insights for identifying gaps and risks that, when proactively addressed, strengthen client trust and satisfaction.

The breadth and depth of your audit will depend on the size of your business; associated risks; and local, ever-evolving accounting, reporting, and tax regulations.

Our member firms and their audit professionals can help you to navigate this complex cross-border landscape:

• Assessing conformance to set standards and contractual obligations
• Extracting meaningful information to support future strategic decisions
• Providing joined-up thinking when you have operations in multiple countries
• Reviewing operational resilience and highlighting efficiency improvements
