A tailored approach to audit assurance
Our audit specialists pride themselves on delivering effective and actionable auditing solutions for their clients. To do this, we encourage four consistent methods of approach within our corporate auditing services.
An Integrated Approach
As tax rules and regulations become complex for our clients, we keep open communication lines with our tax partners to properly navigate and apply those requirements. With the rise in digitalization, we understand that information technology (IT) is an integral component of our audit. Accordingly, we engage with our IT experts given the complexity of our client’s IT environment and controls. Our partners make decisions quickly, whenever and wherever they are, thus guaranteeing our clients the efficiency and effectiveness they expect.
Data Driven Approach
We believe in the power of data. Our Firm acknowledges the power of leveraging today’s advances in technology and changes in the business environment in performing the audit. We apply data analytics to deliver an in-depth understanding of the business circumstances of our clients and their key business processes and to identify, assess, and test key risks in a more effective and efficient manner. In particular, our analytics-enabled audit will utilize the following techniques in the different phases of the audit:
- Planning and Risk Assessment
This phase involves understanding the key risk areas for the audit, areas where data analytics could make the audit efficient, and the best approach to executing the analytics through detection of unusual transactions and trend analyses. This is also known as exploratory analytics.
- Execution
This phase incorporates analytics into the test of controls, test of details, and substantive procedures to meet the objectives of the audit in an efficient manner. This is based on the analytics-enabled risk assessment.
- Reporting
To facilitate appreciation from those charged with governance, reporting will incorporate elements of analytics and, to the extent applicable, make use of a dashboard with view of the enterprise as a whole.
A Customized Approach
We always aim to provide high quality audit. Our audit methodology is compliant with the Philippine Standards on Auditing. Most of our work are performed during planning and risk assessment phase to enable us to properly anticipate issues early. We believe that an effective audit strategy and plan are critical to our audit’s timely completion.
We customize our approach to be more responsive of the risks identified in our audit:
- Experienced, highly qualified and dedicated professionals will be on board
- Active involvement of tax and IT professionals from the start of the audit work
- Thorough understanding of our client’s businesses, processes, internal controls and IT environment for an effective identification of key audit areas of focus
