Our industry sector approach 
At BDO, our assurance practice follows a sector-focused approach to ensure greater efficiency and quality. Our industry-specific teams bring deep expertise and a thorough understanding of the unique risks and processes within your sector. This specialised knowledge allows us to provide holistic solutions that are precisely tailored to your business needs. 

Our global and local audit service
Operating from seven major business centres across South Africa, our professionals are close to your business - wherever your operations are – and are experts in conducting global audits for South African-based multinationals.

Furthermore, if your company is based in South Africa, but operates globally, you will also be able to draw on the expertise and local knowledge of the BDO international network of 80,000+ audit and assurance experts in over 165 countries.

The importance of regulator relationships
Our relationships with key regulators, both in South Africa and globally through other BDO firms, provide us with a comprehensive understanding of the codes and rules governing audits, as well as insights into the potential impact of future regulations. This global perspective ensures that our audit practices not only meet South African requirements but also align with international standards.

We actively contribute to the enhancement of financial reporting and auditing standards by participating in government and regulatory consultations worldwide. This involvement helps shape regulations that benefit all investors, whether they are owner-managers or public market shareholders. Additionally, our significant presence in relevant industry bodies further reinforces our commitment to driving improvements in audit quality on both a local and global scale.
