Statutory / External Audit

The underlying value of audit is a means of maintaining the credibility of the business and, for listed companies, the sustainability of its share price value over the long-term. For an owner-manager, a professionally conducted audit is a vital business control and can be offered as part of our overall OMB business advisory approach.

Together, audit and other assurance services play a fundamental role in the successful management of an organisation, particularly when auditors establish effective working relationships based on mutual trust and respect, with key players within a company, including management, non-executive directors and other advisers.

Clients benefit from:

  • our unique, integrated structure that allows us to put together cross-border teams under a single partner.
  • our robust and challenging approach to audit. We do not shy away from face-to-face discussion and challenge on audit issues – we have all the technical processes and procedures clients would expect of an international firm, but our partners don’t hide behind them.
  • partner-led client service. We do not make a habit of changing your Mazars team once it has engaged with you – it is the norm for the partner who starts working with you to stay with you as long as current rotation rules allow.

We also care about our industry. We have long pressed for a debate on audit competition. We believe that companies and their shareholders alike deserve the benefits that increased competition can bring and are committed to playing an active role in shaping its future.
