Compliance audit

A compliance audit is the analysis carried out by companies to ensure that they comply with the regulations, both internally and externally, with respect to the law, accounting, tax and labor, in the countries in which they are operating.

Companies contract this type of audit in order to determine whether they are complying with the labor laws of the countries in which they operate.

During the audit, we review the workforce to analyze the following aspects and prepare a report with risks, changes to be made and proposals for their implementation:

  • Contingencies related to payment of salaries.
  • Labor liabilities.
  • Review of outsourcing of personnel.
  • Stamping of payroll receipts.
  • Calculation of income tax and social security contributions, as well as local payroll tax.
  • Review of severance calculations and resignation settlement calculations.
  • Review of contracts.
  • Review of labor cases.

The non-mandatory audit of annual accounts is designed for companies that are not obliged to be audited yet wish to be audited. This is done when the company wants to know the cost of liquidation of its company abroad, its labor liabilities, determine what administrative, legal, labor and commercial risks it faces, know the limitations of its powers of attorney, if its insurance is correct, if it is up to date with the obligations regarding the protection of its trademarks, data protection, as well as to have us review its shareholding organization chart in the subsidiary and the parent company so that we can provide tax and legal advice.

This type of non-mandatory audit also serves our clients in situations where they may be uncertain about the financial statements of their various subsidiaries, i.e. due to a lack of confidence in the work carried out in previous periods.

This is a very common audit that we perform for clients who are dissatisfied with the work of their firm. They rely on us to handle the matter, perform audits to clean up the accounting, tax and labor aspects of the company and to shed light on its status for the parent company.

A due diligence is a process of information search usually carried out by the buyer to thoroughly evaluate the compliance, risk analysis and contingencies of the company being purchased and its economic and financial situation. The purpose is to obtain the necessary information to purchase the company, which will vary according to the analysis performed, both in terms of value and contract conditions.

In a tax audit we verify accounting records and documents. The purpose of the audit is to inspect the tax situation to check whether the accounting has been done accurately and completely.

This tax audit service is requested by Spanish companies with subsidiaries in Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Chile, Portugal, Morocco, United States and Italy in order to ascertain the true situation of their subsidiaries and their parent company.

The audit report for capital reductions and audit for capital increases must be signed by a ROAC auditor. It must be made available to the shareholders prior to any resolution to increase the share capital.

No resolution to increase capital may be adopted without the auditor’s report and the director’s report, which shall form part of the notarial deed containing the capital increase to be charged to reserves.
