- 2023

A note on independence
We do not audit books we keep. If the firm keeps your monthly accounts and you also need an audit, the two are separated: different people on each, and the separation written into the engagement letter. Where that cannot be done, we do one or the other.Why it matters: an auditor who wrote the books is checking their own work, and a bank or a free zone can reject the report.
