Our Specialised External Audit & Assurance Solutions in Melbourne

Our Melbourne external audit practice provides rigorous, objective assurance designed to satisfy regulatory authorities, protect shareholder equity, and deliver transparent financial reporting.

Comprehensive examination of year-end financial statements to verify balance sheet integrity and income accuracy. Engagements conclude with an Independent Auditor’s Report fulfilling mandatory lodgement requirements under the Corporations Act 2001.

Targeted regulatory evaluations for Australian Financial Services Licence holders across Melbourne’s financial sector. Fieldwork evaluates base-level financial requirements, net tangible asset calculations, and client money handling against ASIC regulatory standards.

Statutory audit and review engagements for registered charities, foundations, and Victorian incorporated associations. Fieldwork substantiates grant utilisation and governance disclosures to fulfill Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) reporting obligations.

Technical financial reporting for Australian operating entities of foreign parent groups. Testing reconciles Victorian statutory accounts with international consolidation timetables under IFRS, US GAAP, and local accounting standards.

Special-purpose financial assessments, quality of earnings evaluations, and working capital reconciliations for commercial acquisitions. Engagements provide clear verification of balance sheet assets prior to executing binding transaction terms.

Mandatory annual trust examinations verifying sales deposits, rental distributions, and reconciliation accuracy. Assurance procedures ensure full adherence to the Estate Agents Act 1980 administered by Consumer Affairs Victoria.

Independent external examinations assessing solicitors’ trust ledgers, journal entries, and transit money handling. All testing complies with the Legal Profession Uniform Law overseen by the Victorian Legal Services Board and Commissioner.

External Audit vs Internal Audit

While both audit types evaluate financial data, Melbourne organisations utilise them for distinct corporate and regulatory purposes.

  • External audits provide independent, statutory verification that your financial statements present a true and fair view in compliance with Australian Accounting Standards, satisfying requirements set by ASIC, the ACNC, Consumer Affairs Victoria, banking institutions, and shareholders.
  • For organisations seeking to strengthen risk management from within, our dedicated internal audit service in Melbourne evaluates operational workflows, risk mitigation frameworks, and governance controls. This gives company boards, audit committees, and executive management actionable insights to protect assets and eliminate systemic inefficiencies. 

Deploying both functions ensures full statutory compliance at year-end while maintaining robust operational governance throughout the operating calendar.

Frequently Asked Questions

Under the Corporations Act 2001, mandatory statutory audits apply to all public companies, listed entities, disclosing entities, registered managed investment schemes, and AFSL holders. Proprietary (private) companies in Victoria must undergo an external audit if they meet at least two of the large proprietary thresholds at financial year-end: $50 million or more in consolidated gross revenue, $25 million or more in consolidated gross assets, or 100 or more full-time equivalent employees. Small proprietary companies that are foreign-controlled or directed by ASIC or shareholders holding at least 5% of voting shares also require audited accounts.

Statutory audits must be conducted and signed by a Registered Company Auditor (RCA) registered with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). Audits must follow the Australian Auditing Standards (ASAs) set by the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (AUASB) and adhere strictly to APES 110 independence guidelines.

A statutory external audit is a mandatory compliance requirement governed by Australian Auditing Standards (ASAs) to provide general-purpose assurance that year-end financial statements give a true and fair view. An M&A due diligence audit is a targeted, special-purpose investigation commissioned prior to a business acquisition or merger. Due diligence evaluates quality of earnings (QoE), verifies historical cash flows, substantiates balance sheet assets, identifies undisclosed liabilities, and tests working capital normalisation to support transaction pricing.
