Non statutory audit

Not all businesses are obliged by law to have an audit. Nonetheless, many choose to have an audit because of the commercial benefits. For example, should you wish to sell your business, a clear understanding of your financial position can help you get the best price. An audit can also help your case if you need to access finance and keep insurers happy. Plus, you will have the reassurance of knowing exactly how your business is performing.

Statutory audit

If your business is required by law to have an audit, you will enjoy all the same commercial benefits detailed above. You can gain valuable insights from the detailed information produced, and use this to refine your business and maximise profits.
