Real Time Insights: Does my Company need an Independent Review?
Why does my business need an Independent Review?
- Based on the requirements of the Companies Act an Independent Review could be compulsory for your business.
- Even if it is not compulsory it is highly recommended that most medium-sized entities undergo an Independent Review.
- An Independent Review provides an additional layer of credibility to your Financial Statements, especially when third parties review them (for example your Funders, Banks, and Customers).
What value do I get from an Independent Review (IR)?
- An IR provides a refreshed point of view on your entity’s financial statements, due to advanced analytical testing and procedures, which may result in some new insights.
- These insights include:
- the enhancement of internal controls
- the improvement of retaining supporting documentation
- suggestions on more appropriate disclosures or non-compliance with some laws and regulations
- potential restructuring opportunities
- When the IR is finalised, an Independent Reviewer’s report is issued with your financial statements, which gives the user a higher level of comfort.
- We also provide a Report to Management for your internal use, containing our findings. Here, we list the possible risks involved and provide suggestions on how to address them. This ensures that a more robust internal control environment is developed with an escalated focus on enhanced compliance.
