Audit-Services

Auditing is more than merely giving the legally required opinion on a company’s annual financial statements. Irrespective of whether you audit annual financial statements of single-entities or consolidated annual financial statements – an objective assessment and evaluation by an external auditor will enhance the reliability of the information presented for all decision makers.

Our auditing experts are equipped with many years of experience, competence, industry know-how and integrity and our audit opinions are highly recognised. We carry out audits of annual financial statements and consolidated annual financial statements according to both national and international accounting standards. Apart from the traditional annual audits there is a multitude of legally required and voluntary audits as well as special audits (amongst others, audits in connection with the establishment, change, restructuring and refinancing of companies), which we are also happy to perform. We can ensure that a high percentage of our auditors are highly experienced professionals. This is why we guarantee to deliver a high level of quality, whilst at the same time operating in a time and cost-efficient manner.

Inter alia, our audit approach offers you the following advantages:

• Each audit is planned and implemented in close coordination with you
• The focus of our audits is adjusted to your business and its specific account-closing risks
• Personal support, care and high involvement in the processing of tasks by your responsible TAP-Partner, who also coordinates the entire audit
• Continuous exchange of opinions concerning developments and changes to national and international accounting standards
