Our approach

As BDO we believe in balanced and clear reporting which includes reporting on the controls that are adequately designed and implemented efficiently and effectively, as well as those controls which are not.  We work with management and remain conscious of Combined Assurance roles and responsibilities to enhance our internal controls.  Our newest internal audit expert programme is the audit of infrastructure development – assessing value for money, procurement processes and compliance to the regulatory framework.
