Pre Audit Services

Get your financial records audit-ready

The last thing you want during an audit is to discover that supporting documentation is missing or that accounts do not reconcile properly.

Yet this happens regularly. A supporting schedule turns out to be incomplete, a balance sheet item is not sufficiently substantiated, or the draft financial statements (jaarrekening) are not ready. Your finance team then has to resolve these issues while the audit is already in progress.

Our accountancy experts help you get your financial records audit-ready. We review whether the documents required for the audit are complete and correct. We also make sure that, before the audit begins, a draft set of financial statements is ready and meets all applicable statutory requirements. That means fewer last-minute issues for you and your team.

This gives you confidence that your financial records are in order before the audit starts and allows the external auditor to carry out the audit efficiently using a risk-based approach. In our experience, this can save a considerable amount of time — and therefore money.

A clear plan

We start by identifying what the external auditor needs and assessing the current state of your financial records. We then address missing documentation, reconciliations and any other issues that need to be resolved. Where necessary, we also help your employees prepare this information themselves.

Next, we make sure all required documents are ready before the audit starts.

Our specialists have hands-on experience with audits themselves. They understand what auditors look for and what information they typically need.
