New standards in audit service

Grant Thornton is setting new standards in the audit service area. In a climate of constant change, where business becomes increasingly global and the use of IT increasingly sophisticated, the success or failure of a company is dependent on its ability to manage resources and information.

We understand this and Grant Thornton International have developed Grant Thornton Horizon to help businesses manage this challenge and maintain their competitive advantage.

General audit is a statutory discipline

It has to be completed in the most efficient, reliable and flexible way possible at the same time as keeping expenses down.

Horizon ensures this. It employs technologically advanced software and helps us capture information about your business and improves our understanding of how it operates.

Horizon looks in depth at the commercial issues that flow from the audit and the business risks that are of real importance to you.

Horizon also makes sure that the audit is performed in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISA) and this is why an auditors’ report from Grant Thornton is a seal of approval for the businesses' stakeholders – domestic and foreign.

At the same time, our clients are guaranteed an efficient and value creating audit by using the latest IT based auditing and analytical tools combined with our policy of attaching one contact person and one team to each business.

We have served clients for more than 80 years and advise a wide range of clients within both the public and private sectors including some of the most significant players in the Danish business environment. Besides the core service auditing and related accounting assistance, our expertise covers:

• Tax
• IT Audit & Risk Assurance
• Corporate Finance
• Succession
• Financial risks
• IFRS/IAS annual reports

Grant Thornton International is one of the founding members of the provisional Forum of Firms. This organisation is a high profile initiative between the larger accounting firms and the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC).

The Forum of Firm’s objective is to promote consistently high standards of financial reporting and auditing worldwide in the interests of users of the profession’s services.
