Independent assurance for UAE businesses

More Than a Compliance Exercise

An external audit is an independent examination of financial statements and supporting evidence. It enables the auditor to express an opinion on whether those statements are prepared, in all material respects, under the applicable financial reporting framework.

For UAE companies, audit and assurance can support licence renewals, shareholder oversight, bank facilities, investor confidence, group reporting, transactions and stronger internal governance.

What are audit and assurance services?

They independently evaluate financial information, controls or specified subject matter. A financial statement audit provides reasonable assurance and an audit opinion, while reviews and agreed-upon procedures have different scopes and reporting outcomes.
