Your reliable partners.
Auditing increases the reliability of your company information for decision-makers and users
This applies to statutory annual and consolidated financial statements just as much as to special audit services and auditor’s reports. With our independently and competently conducted audit services, we at Grant Thornton Germany guarantee our clients and the users of their financial statements a high level of assurance and trust.
To us auditing is more than just a commodity!
Quality and independence of our auditing
Quality does not come by chance but is lived out by all the Grant Thornton partners and staff. The highest level of quality that you and your shareholders so rightly expect is the benchmark for our decisions. You and your shareholders can trust our judgement and rely on us to keep our word. We place a high value on our independence, which forms the foundation of our actions. We ensure that our global independence in the Grant Thornton network is observed by proactively implementing relevant measures and systems both before and while you are clients of ours.
Innovative audit approach
Auditing your annual or consolidated financial statements shouldn’t be a burdensome chore, but – more than just a test of the compliance of your financial reporting – should be understood as a useful instrument for uncovering business potential. To do this, we have innovatively developed our risk-oriented audit approach according to the Grant Thornton audit methodology.
You profit from automated system tests and data analyses. To keep up with the continuous digitalisation of your business processes, we employ an innovative and technically state-of-the-art orientation in our auditing financial statements. Our software-assisted audit methodology allows assertions to be more reliable and delivers insights into risks in your processes and financial reporting.
In order to point out room for improvement, leverage increases in efficiency and professionalise your processes, alongside traditional auditing, we also put previously defined areas of your business to the test. We analyse your internal and external reporting, your system of internal control and tax circumstances. In our gap analysis, we identify on a case-by-case basis existing potential for optimisation and develop relevant options for action. Selecting and implementing the solutions that we develop together naturally remains your responsibility; we consider our role as that of your co-pilot through the entire process and assist you competently and with commitment all the way to implementation and beyond.
Depending on the complexity and scope of your audit, we set up a professional project management office (PMO). The benefits to you? An all-round view of all the interfaces involved in the audit, coordination of the various individual audits, on-going and targeted communication and reporting during the entire audit, a complete and transparent information exchange, rapid reaction times to queries and the support of IT solutions for monitoring and documentation.
The added value to you of working with us
From mid-market to mid-market and beyond – we combine the agility of a mid-market company with the resources of a strong international organisation. That’s why we’re an ideal partner for international, dynamic companies.
We have many years of experience in the coordination of cross-border audits and are optimally informed on country-specific developments.
The focus is on you – we think of ourselves as your reliable partner to give you assistance with considering your options and taking action to improve your competitive position in the market. A central contract for all queries concerning the engagement, the lead partner, makes sure your needs get the highest level of attention.
- We communicate with you on an equal basis – a high level of partner involvement comes natural to us. With us, you communicate directly with the responsible partner as equals so that matters are cleared up pragmatically and competently and so that decisions can be made quickly. This is accompanied by the fact that our teams are always directly available to you.
- We ensure the continuity of the team – owing to the relatively low staff turnover at our company, our staff have usually known the companies they are to audit for years. If there are changes to the staff on the audit team, we guarantee that the transfer and introduction of the new team members to the engagement will be early and smooth.
- We invest in the future – our audit and assurance service is always up-to-date. Thanks to relevant training and education schemes and our internal publications, all our staff are constantly kept abreast of current market and professional developments. That’s why we’re not only able to respond to your requests and queries, but also to proactively point out relevant changes and trends.
Switching to us is one thing – stress-free!
Regardless of whether you are a listed entity subject to the legal rotation requirement or are a privately owned mid-market company looking to change auditors – we guarantee that the switch will be smooth, by using a migration plan developed beforehand and a lead partner, who will take care of your affairs in a focused way.
