Some businesses think that a favourable Audit Report is sufficient and adequate, but the reality is that the reputation of the audit firm issuing the report is just as important as the audit opinion. Even the favorable opinion from a disreputable audit firm, is essentially useless.

Less reputable firms will never offer a Management Letter to its clients at the completion of the audit. This tool helps the firms in highlighting the control weaknesses discovered during the course of the audit and bringing it in to the attention of the company owners and top management. This also assists in employment of corrective measures required to make the system stronger and healthier for subsequent financial and operational audits.

Playing Fair is the way to go

It is essential for a business to render external audit and assurance services if it wants to conduct business operations within the UAE. Every business entity must comply with the applicable accounting standards and reporting requirements so that its financials present a true and fair view. One of the main reasons behind many business entities consulting local audit firms for the audit of their financials is that they want to ensure that their books of accounts does not contain any information that is either misleading or in non-compliance of prevailing accounting and auditing standards.

Banks and other financial institutions, private lenders, permitting offices, Free Zone Authorities, real estate managers and all of the business entities with whom you want to conduct business operations with will refer to the Public Records before deciding to exchange goods/ services with you. All this creates a level playing field for all the parties involved, where the law and regulations apply equally to all the participants.

It is safe to say that one of the fairest systems exists in the United Arab Emirates. The system itself does not confer any advantage to an individual or company except for the situation in which one has the advantage only because of its unmatched abilities or unique talent. One of the most important assets for a business is its reputation. The perception of a business in the public eye also makes a lot of difference as a business having good reputation will attract more business opportunities while there will be fewer opportunities for business entities having bad reputation.
