Partner - Audit & Assurance
Until a few years ago, financial statement audits were largely procedural and for most entities a mechanical exercise for licence renewal, except for entities with bank facilities. However, developments in the Middle East region starting with the introduction of Value Added Tax (VAT) in the UAE at the beginning of 2018 have significantly transformed the landscape and the importance of audited financial statements. With Corporate Tax coming into effect for periods starting on or after June 2023, the regulatory environment over the audit of financial statements will get even more stringent.
The increasing complexity of financial reporting also adds further intrigue. The standard setting body, IASB is already playing catch up with the development of standards for reporting on new intangible assets, crypto assets such as Bitcoin etc. The skills requirements for the audit of these complex and evolving items have never been more daunting.
The regulators in the UAE will from time to time require independent assurance for compliance with certain requirements. The Federal Tax Authority will from time to time require an audit report for closing stock of products subject to excise duty. Management will also have ad-hoc requirements in addition to external audits. Our audit team has an in-depth knowledge and experience of providing various assurance services, be it agreed upon procedures, assurance assignments on internal controls implementation, regulatory compliance etc.
