  Our team is made up of 6 members whom I manage and lead, including auditors at various levels in executing audit engagements from various sectors. This involves setting out budgets and time allocation in the most effective and efficient way. The statutory audits involve clients reporting under International Financial Reporting Standards as well as others under local GAAP. We carry out audits in line with the firm's policies and in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Our responsibilities cover the whole cycle of the audit from the planning and understanding of the client, to designing audit strategy, testing the effectiveness of internal controls, fieldwork testing through OSPs, SAPs & TOCs, and reviewing stand-alone and consolidated financial statements. We collaborate with foreign offices, sometimes acting as component auditors and at other times as group auditors.I was also involved in 'agreed-upon procedures' engagements involving performing specific procedures appropriate for the intended purpose of the engagement and reporting on findings based on the procedures performed.
