Audit and Assurance – Equitas Advisory, Malta
At Equitas Advisory, we understand that robust and reliable financial reporting is essential for building trust, making informed business decisions, and meeting statutory obligations. Our audit and assurance services are conducted to the highest professional and ethical standards, providing independent, objective assessments that enhance transparency and support compliance with Maltese regulatory requirements.
We aim to deliver clear, actionable insights that empower stakeholders to make confident decisions, whether they are shareholders, investors, management, or regulators.
Our Audit and Assurance Services
Equitas Advisory offers a comprehensive range of audit and assurance services designed to meet the needs of businesses operating in Malta. Our engagements combine rigorous professional methodology with a practical, business-focused approach, ensuring compliance with the Companies Act (Cap. 386) and other applicable regulatory requirements while delivering meaningful value to management and stakeholders.
Statutory audits form the foundation of our audit and assurance offering. We perform independent examinations of financial statements to confirm their accuracy, completeness, and compliance with applicable accounting standards. Our approach is proportionate to the size and complexity of each business, ensuring efficiency without compromising quality.
Our assurance engagements extend beyond statutory audits and focus on evaluating internal controls, compliance processes, and selected financial or non-financial information. These services provide confidence to investors, regulators, and management while strengthening governance frameworks.
For businesses operating through multiple entities or group structures, we provide group and consolidated audit services. These engagements ensure consistency and transparency across subsidiaries, allowing stakeholders to gain a clear understanding of the group’s overall financial performance while meeting statutory and reporting obligations.
We also undertake special purpose audits tailored to specific circumstances, including regulatory audits, grant audits, due diligence reviews, and audits required under contractual arrangements. These engagements provide independent assurance where targeted verification is required by regulators, investors, funding bodies, or commercial counterparties.
Who We Work With
Our audit and assurance services are trusted by a diverse range of clients, including owner-managed businesses, SMEs, corporate groups, investment and holding companies, and regulated entities subject to MFSA oversight. We also support businesses seeking independent verification for shareholders, lenders, and prospective investors.
