In light of today’s continued pressure on corporate governance and the rate of change in legislation and the economic environment, the accuracy of your financial statements is imperative.

The role of your external auditor should go beyond that of statutory compliance and the verification of financial statements. An effective external audit plays an integral role in the future success of your business by contributing directly to the management team’s decision making process, while minimising risks.

At William Buck, our audits are outcome orientated and are focussed on achieving the best results for your business.
Our professional team follows an audit plan tailored to the needs of your business focussing on its key value drivers and the areas which are most critical to its risk profile. Our continuous audit process provides year round access allowing us to keep abreast of changes to your business and be on hand to assist with any queries.

Our unique approach allows us to make constructive and practical recommendations for immediate improvements in your operations, efficiency, accounting practices and financial position.

The early identification of risks also allows us to resolve issues early and ensure that there are no last minute surprises.
