Businesses often require one of three levels of “assurance” for various purposes: an audit, review or compilation. Briefly, an audit provides the highest level of assurance available, extensive verification procedures and the opinion of a CA(SA) on the financial statements, therefore it is not a service we can provide. A review requires only limited verification procedures and does not require the CA(SA) to render an opinion.

Compilations, on the other hand, provide neither assurance nor an opinion by the CA(SA) on the accuracy of financial statements. Typically, a compilation is performed simply to gather company financial data and format it into a properly structured set of financial statements.

Our accounting professionals provide many accounting compilation and review services to our clients — either monthly, quarterly or annually, depending on the needs of the business. Regardless of the frequency, our clients know that we use our knowledge of their business to produce compilations that offer value and information they can use.

In difficult economic times, many companies are having to come to terms with making tough financial decisions. Filing for liquidation, has in the past been a route considered by many companies. The Companies Act 71 of 2008 (“Companies Act”), introduced another intervention mechanism, namely business rescue, as an option to be considered by a company that is in financial distress.

Business rescue aims to restructure the affairs in such a way that it allows a company to continue doing busniess in the future and results in a better return to creditors than would ordinarily result from the liquidation of the company.

We create tailored solutions for distressed companies in order secure a more favourable outcome via Business Rescue Proceedings for creditors and provide management with the necessary tools to ensure the sustainability of the company in the foreseeable future.
