About risk, assurance and investigations

The control environment investors and lenders test first

Assurance work is commissioned for one of two reasons: a board wants to know whether its controls hold, or something has already gone wrong. Both need the same thing — findings evidenced well enough to act on.

We provide internal audit, enterprise risk assessment, control and systems reviews, and forensic investigation where irregularities are suspected. This is independent assurance rather than statutory audit: we do not issue an audit opinion.
