Audit and Assurance — Local Statutory Audits

Statutory audit assurance you can build on

An audit of statutory accounts provides assurance to the users of those accounts that they have been prepared in accordance with relevant accounting and regulatory standards. Throughout the audit, RSM talks to management about our observations and findings, to help the business improve its compliance and performance  not just deliver a signed opinion at the end.

Our professionals specialize in particular sectors and industries, giving a deeper understanding of the challenges your business may face. Before an audit begins, our audit teams visit you to understand how your business operates, the risks it faces, and how to work with you to complete an effective, high-quality audit.

RSM Dahman's Audit and Assurance team delivers local statutory audits for businesses operating across the UAE, backed by the same globally consistent methodology used across RSM's international network.
