Our experts in the field of audit services

External Audit

The trust of stakeholders (shareholders, employees, the public, etc.) is an important basis for corporate success. In statutory and voluntary audits, we observe all relevant regulatory and business requirements and thus offer the information recipients the necessary security for their (business) decisions based on this. We develop specific audit concepts according to the requirements of the client. A trusting cooperation with the relevant bodies of the entity to be audited is essential for us.
