Statutory external audits
Full-scope audits of financial statements for governments, state entities, NGOs and companies, opinion issued under ISA 700.
Practice 01
Audit & Assurance
Reports that stand up in Brussels, Washington and the Auditor General's chambers.
Statutory and non-statutory audits for governments, NGOs, donor programmes and private companies — always with a forensic auditor and data analyst on the team.
What this is
An engagement built for the reader of the report.
Our audit practice was built for engagements where the consumer of the audit report is a regulator, a donor or an oversight body. Every file is planned under ISA, documented to withstand quality review, and signed by a partner.
We staff every engagement with a mixed team — audit senior, forensic auditor and data analyst — so testing goes beyond sampling.
What's included
The full scope of audit & assurance.

Common questions
Before you ask.
- How quickly can you mobilise a team?
- Two to three weeks from signed engagement letter — faster for existing clients. Sovereign audits are scheduled around the fiscal calendar.
- Do you audit in Somalia?
- Yes. Our Mogadishu office runs statutory and donor audits across South-Central Somalia, Puntland and Jubaland, with security-cleared field staff.
- Will the report be accepted by our funder?
- Our reports are issued under ISA and, where relevant, EU PRAG or USAID ADS. We know the templates each donor accepts and format accordingly.
