Group statutory audit specialists in London, Kent and Sussex

Group structures bring added complexity to audit logistics and financial reporting. A group audit provides assurance that your full consolidated financial statements are accurate, transparent and fully compliant with the relevant standards.

Whether your business is an established international group or a smaller business newly acquired by an overseas parent, we offer a flexible, partner-led approach that supports your needs.

Group audits require a deeper understanding of risk, consolidation and group-wide controls. Our audit team is highly experienced in managing multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction and multi-sector groups. We tailor our approach to the structure and significance of each subsidiary/component of your group to ensure we deliver a clear, consistent, high-quality audit.

We can further draw on the experience, knowledge and capacity of the Kreston Global network, operating in over 100 countries, to provide full international audit assurance to our clients.
