Audit & Assurance 

By listening to the needs and requirements of each of our clients, PKF develop an audit plan that delivers more that just the traditional external audit opinion on the financial statements.

"PKF's independence is unquestionable. Their professionalism and client-service teams
in the audit and tax specialisations are first rate."

John Lau, Chief Financial Officer, GHD

The PKF philosophy of personalised client service is evidenced by direct and active involvement of Partners and Senior Managers in each assignment. Open lines of communication are considered critical to delivering a quality, value added service in line with client expectations and PKF service levels.

Ethical standards, integrity, independence and technical excellence are combined with a timely and value added personal service.

The appointment of a Concurring Partner to each listed company audit provides a fresh view of the issues facing a business and recommendations of solutions appropriate to the circumstances.

The knowledge and technical skills of PKF team members are constantly enhanced through our extensive library of data bases and formalised training programs.

Accounting Standards can be ambiguous and do not cover all individual circumstances. The PKF team have considerable expertise in the interpretation of reporting standards. By working closely with clients we are able to develop the optimum solution for their situation without compromising the reporting requirements or our own standards.

The PKF client base includes local and international businesses, privately owned and companies listed on the Australian and overseas Stock Exchanges, Government organisations, Superannuation and Investment Funds, Charities and Not-For-Profit Organisations covering a diverse range of services and industries.
