Auditing Services in Hampshire & Surrey

Keith Graham Chartered Accountants are authorised by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales (ICAEW) to act as independent, external auditors and undertake financial audit work for clients.

We can perform your businesses auditing and financial analysis with minimum fuss and maximum efficiency and accuracy.

As well as providing you with peace of mind that your business accounts are fully compliant with statutory requirements following an audit, we can also use this opportunity to identify strengths and weaknesses in the finances of your business, helping pave the way to future success and profitability.

Our Auditing Services

Our core financial auditing services include:

  • Statutory audits – A standard regulated procedure which acts as a check up on all records; bookkeeping, financial payments and bank balances to make sure that the company is self-representing accurately regarding their financial situation.
  • Internal audits – Internal audits are a kind of maintenance check which helps a business make sure their risk management, governance and internal control processes are working effectively and efficiently.
  • Compliance auditing – This is a comprehensive review of an organisation’s adherence to regulatory guidelines. Our independent external auditors review security policies, risk managements and user access controls.
  • Charity audits – Even charities need their accounts audited, much like your business. Due to recent government changes, only charities with an income higher than £1m need auditing, as these audits can be time-consuming. We are able to perform charity audits with strict confidentiality as well as the utmost professionalism.
  • Minimising fraud exposure - Fraud can be a major hindrance, costing (potentially) millions for your business. That is why at Keith-Graham we are constantly looking to minimise your business to fraud exposure. We do this through bespoke fraud assessments as well as advising on ways to upgrade financial internal controls and accounting processes.
  • Specialist audits – We also perform specialist audits meaning we are able to cover very specific areas of your individual business, meeting requirements that are usually set out by your company’s designated professional bodies or regulations.

Acting as external independent auditors, we serve firms and clients in a range of towns across the Surrey and Hampshire region including: Aldershot, Farnham, Fleet and Farnborough.

These offerings assist businesses in fulfilling their legal requirements while ensuring that stakeholders have clear visibility into their financial situation.

Not every small business is legally required to undergo an audit, but opting for one can boost your credibility with lenders and investors. Keith Graham is here to help you figure out if an audit would be beneficial for your business.

A financial audit is all about checking if a company’s financial statements are materially both accurate and free from any significant mistakes, whether those mistakes are due to fraud or just errors. This process gives stakeholders peace of mind, knowing that the financial reporting is both reliable and trustworthy.

Only auditors who are registered with a Recognised Supervisory Body (RSB), like the ICAEW are allowed to conduct statutory audits in the UK. Keith Graham is fully authorised to perform these audits in line with the current regulations.

The duration of an audit really hinges on how big and complex the business is. Generally, it can span from a couple of weeks to several months, covering everything from planning and fieldwork to reporting. Keith Graham is dedicated to ensuring a smooth process with minimal disruption. Check out our business accounting services to discover how we weave auditing into your overall financial strategy.
