Assurance services provide independent and professional opinions that reduce the information risk (risk that comes from incorrect information).

Our firm enjoys the distinction of being among the market leaders in the provision of taxation services. As tax advisers, our overriding objective is to aggressively pursue innovative strategies to ensure the lowest possible tax burden for our clients.
  
  Some examples of specific services we believe may be of value to our clients include:
  • Income tax, duty and VAT planning and reviews.
    
  • Semi-annual tax planning meetings.
  • Related party "transfer pricing" consultations.
    We are aware of many cross-border opportunities, which can minimize the overall tax burden of group companies.
  • Foreign exchange issues and analysis.
  • Earning repatriation strategies.

    As you evaluate independent accountants, you will surely consider each firm's ability to handle compliance needs efficiently and effectively. Our approach is designed to minimize disruption to your personnel by focusing during the audit on eventual preparation of the tax returns. This reduces duplicated effort and thereby increases efficiency.
  Additionally, we integrate our consulting and compliance efforts to minimize your taxes. We believe we are most effective for our clients if we prepare, rather than merely review, the tax returns. We also believe that any reduction in preparation efficiency caused by moving this work to us is outweighed by the effectiveness and accuracy of tax returns.
  
  Our access to key people in the government and tax authorities enables us to assist clients with prompt, in-depth analysis of leading-edged tax issues and provide solutions to the most complex problems. If needed, we can also help you communicate your position on important issues to government legislative and regulatory agencies. We will also keep you fully updated of legislative changes.

• Financial Advisory and Project Fund Management

Typically, our fund management plan will cover more than a single asset, taking a system approach – especially where a number of assets are co-dependent and are required to work together to deliver an agreed standard of service.
• Procurement Audits and Training
  When developing a quality management system, many organizations put in place systems to control the procurement of products and services and the verification of purchased products to satisfy its requirements. Similarly, auditors may consider it sufficient to confirm compliance by checking that an organization’s approved supplier list is up to date, that orders have been placed only with those approved suppliers and that activities necessary for meeting specified purchase requirements have been carried out. In many instances, however, this approach may not be sufficient to ensure that purchased products and services meet original specifications in all respects. In such instances, it would be preferable to review the wider processes for procurement management and the supply chain using a procurement audit.
• Monitoring and Evaluation Consultancies
  Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) is a process that helps improving performance and achieving results. Its goal is to improve current and future management of outputs, outcomes and impact. It is mainly used to assess the performance of projects, institutions and programmes set up by governments, international organisations and NGOs. It establishes links between the past, present and future actions.
• Due Diligence Training
  Due diligence is an investigation of a business or person prior to signing a contract, or an act with a certain standard of care. It can be a legal obligation, but the term will more commonly apply to voluntary investigations. The principle behind due diligence holds that performing this type of investigation contributes significantly to informed decision making by enhancing the amount and quality of information available to decision makers and by ensuring that this information is systematically used to deliberate in a reflective manner on the decision at hand and all its costs, benefits, and risks.
• Capacity Building
  This is a conceptual approach to organizational development that focuses on understanding the obstacles that inhibit people, governments, international organizations and non-governmental organizations from realizing their development goals while enhancing the abilities that will allow them to achieve measurable and sustainable results.
