Audit and Forensic

Statutory and internal audit, economic and financial expert reports, and fraud risk management, carried out with rigour, confidentiality and independence.

Statutory Audit

The EGALTIA team provides high-quality audit services characterised by modern methodology, close contact with our clients and risk analysis:

  • Audit of annual accounts and related reports.
  • Public sector audit: financial and compliance audits, verifying the allocation and control of public funds.
  • Reports required by law:
    • Capital increases and reductions.
    • Non-cash contributions.
    • Independent expert reports.
    • Merger plans and other corporate transactions.
  • Reviews supporting grant claims: European Union, government ministries, regional governments and other bodies.

The financial information that companies provide must be as credible as possible. To that end, our methodology is based on applying auditing procedures generally accepted at national and international level.

Internal Audit

An effective internal audit service can make a positive contribution to creating value in an organisation. The new economic and financial framework, growing regulatory requirements, good corporate governance and the risks an organisation faces have significantly broadened the internal auditor's work. This means that, once management's strategy and objectives are understood, the internal auditor must focus on how that strategy is to be achieved through an appropriate plan.

At EGALTIA we identify areas for improvement and work to help find solutions and achieve objectives. Our support and advisory services to organisations include:

  • Implementing, analysing and improving the internal audit function.
  • Setting up and managing the internal audit function; designing periodic audit plans.
  • Improving efficiency in performing and documenting audits, and prioritising risks.
  • Auditing and reviewing internal or outsourced processes.

Expert Reports and Anti-Fraud

Expert reports:

Our forensic practice provides specialist support as an independent expert in resolving economic and financial disputes, whether in or out of court. We specialise in preparing expert reports and ratifying them in court.

Our working philosophy is based on providing high-quality services with the agility and the practical, multidisciplinary approach that these situations and today's business environment demand.

We pursue excellence by applying rigour, confidentiality and independence in the services we provide. Our reports stand out for their clarity, robustness and professionalism.

Our professionals have extensive experience in forensic auditing, damages valuation and quantification, regulatory compliance, analysis of processes, controls and fraud risks, and forensic systems analysis.

Anti-fraud:

Fraud risk is a reality in every sector.

  • In Spain there is a recognised need to strengthen internal control and prevention measures in response to the rise in internal fraud (by senior and middle management), which means organisations will need to take anti-fraud measures against it and adopt more robust policies.
  • Internal and external whistleblowing channels have proven to be the most effective detection measures.
  • The goal should be to establish global fraud management that gives the Board of Directors assurance that fraud risk is reasonably mitigated. We help organisations manage fraud risk at every stage of the process: assessment, prevention, detection and investigation.
