Many entities are required by law to have their accounts audited. We work with our associated Registered Auditors Just Audit & Assurance who have extensive experience in providing audit and assurance services to a wide range of organisations. These range from owner-managed businesses to large limited companies and from small ‘not for profit’ organisations to large charities. The audit team at Just Audit & Assurance consists of qualified and experienced accountants and auditors who will deliver a high quality service.

CHOICE

The increase in the compulsory audit threshold to companies with a turnover in excess of £5.6million has meant that for many businesses the statutory audit has become optional. However an audit may still be required, for example at the request of the shareholders who are not involved in the day to day running of the business, at the request of financial institutions if you are trying to raise finance, or with a view to the future sale of the business, or just for peace of mind.

ADDING VALUE

The JustAudits team do not view the audit process as being purely compliance. They look at your business and systems and where relevant suggest practical improvements to increase control, minimise the risk of fraud and maximise profits. This, in part, is why we have chosen to separate the delivery of this specialist and valuable service.

OTHER ASSURANCE SERVICES

They can also offer a range of other audit and assurance services, which include due diligence reports and accounting systems and internal control reviews.
