Global and Listed Company Audits
Global audit services built for internationally active groups
We provide global audit services to fit the needs of internationally active groups, in accordance with a variety of assurance standards, including International Standards on Auditing, auditing standards generally accepted in the United States (US GAAS), and US Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) auditing standards.
RSM firms in key economies are registered with the PCAOB, enabling their work to be a recognized component of US listed companies' audited accounts. They use a consistent global audit methodology to perform their audit work, taking account of specific local requirements where necessary.
RSM's member firms across the Middle East and North Africa apply this same global methodology and multi-standard capability, giving internationally active groups headquartered or operating in the region a single, consistent audit approach across borders.
