Forensic Audits Services in Kuala Lumpur, Penang
A forensic audit is undertaken in order to determine, for legal purposes, whether a fraud has occurred or not. Forensic audits involve examining the accounts of an organisation by using several techniques, such as propriety, regularity, and financial-investigative audits. Each of these techniques might involve a separate kind of audit, but the objective is the exhaustive determination of the presence of fraud for the purposes of legal action.
When Do You Need A Forensic Audit?
Forensic audits are usually undertaken when financial records need to be presented to a court of law as evidence.
- It can be necessary when a party is being accused of fraud, embezzlement or in the case of investigation of any financial irregularities in the accounts of a company.
- Most financial claims that go to court necessitate a forensic audit.
- Divorce settlements or cases of child support and custody also often require forensic audit of accounts as evidence.
Since the purpose of a forensic audit is clearly different than that of an internal financial audit, there are many additional steps and regulations that govern a forensic audit.
- Forensic auditing is often a specialisation within the domain of accounting and one that requires additional training.
- Forensic auditors can be asked to provide testimony in court.
- Cases that require forensic auditing services usually involve embezzlement, financial fraud, or other financial irregularities but cases about divorces, bankruptcies, and payment of child support might also call for a forensic audit.
Any instance where the court has to deal with financial documents requires a forensic audit. The audit is intended to identify the presence of fraud, the duration for which the law has been transgressed, the guilty parties and quantify the financial loss.
