Internal audit and risk advisory

Tailored expertise to minimise your risks and maximise your returns

We understand the major threats of business today and how they can impact your organisation. The global banking crisis, the rise of cybercrime, changing business dynamics, corporate failures with increased stakeholder accountability – all of these factors only heighten the importance of identifying risks and the appropriate response as early as possible.

 

The need for internal audit and risk advisory services:

Our objective is to provide the audit committee, senior management, head of operations, process owners and the rest of your organisation with a comprehensive and unbiased analysis of the corporate governance processes, risks and functional efficiency of your business - and to suggest areas for improvement and value-addition.

 

Our internal audit services are also an effective means of evaluating:

  • Efficacy of operations
  • Reliability of financial reporting

We believe in delivering internal audit and risk advisory solutions at the highest level of professional competency and integrity to our clients.
