Audit and Assurance

Management audit is basically the review of a company’s financial (financial statements) and non-financial information (policies & procedures, organisational objectives, structure, control systems) for the purpose of evaluating the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the management over the company’s activities in line with the objectives of the shareholders of the company.

This type of audit can be conducted by SIAO and we provide recommendations in line with best practice to any defaults or issues identified after the review of the company’s information. We believe that after completion of this audit and implementation of our recommendations, the company’s efficiency and effectiveness should significantly increase.
