Our commitment to Audit Quality – 2025

The business world relies on trust and confidence. We understand our role in promoting trust in financial reporting by performing high-quality audits. And we embrace that responsibility as independent auditors.

As auditors, we capture, communicate and report value through high-quality audit and assurance so the market itself can work better. With this foundation in place, we execute every audit with professional skepticism, due care, independence and objectivity in accordance with professional standards by:

Supporting our people with a focus on professional development

• Our professionals work in teams together and with our clients through efficient use of technology and in person to facilitate communication, collaboration and authentic experiences that enhance audit quality and on-the-job training.
• Building diverse teams with a continuous learning and improvement mindset is a priority to enable better decisions and innovation.

Integrating the use of specialists within the audit

• As audits become more complex and technology driven, our audit approach increasingly brings multidisciplinary specialists spanning technology, tax, valuations, forensics, sustainability and cybersecurity into the team as well as any other specialty specific to sector demands.
• This approach helps us address increasingly complex technology environments, transactions, worldwide tax regimes and business models.

Through these connected and continuous efforts, we are weaving quality into the very fabric of our organization — within audit and assurance and more broadly, at the core of our firm’s ethos in Canada.
