Audit for a Chinese subsidiary with a complex reporting approach

The task

To provide a PRC statutory audit and audit on the group reporting package. Because the company recorded their financial data in different accounts and systems, the fragmented database made it difficult to understand their financial results.

Our approach

We sent out a list of our requests in advance, arranged a number of meetings with both the company headquarters and the local finance management, and then carried out the pre-audit and final audit in close collaboration with both parties.

The outcome

Our team reconciled the data and assessed the breakdowns behind the reported figures. After much work, we were able to identify several issues that originated from a previous audit conducted ten years ago by the former auditor.
