We appreciate that donors and development actors heavily rely on our reports as auditors. Such reports differ from donor to donor based on terms of reference. Whereas financial corporate or statutory audits focus on the true and fair view presentation of the reports and narrations, donor audits are as varied as the priorities of those commissioning the audit.

We identify the following key financial audit areas:

1. Compliance with terms and conditions of contractual and statutory obligations.
2. Validation and verification of expenditure and funds.
3. Value for money in the procurement and purchase of goods and services and utilization of assets and resources.
4. Controls over cash and bank accounts.
5. Accuracy and completeness of financial reports.
6. Liabilities and unsettled commitments.
7. Adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls and record keeping.
