At EY Canada, we’re bringing our bold vision for the future of audit to life now, with quality at the centre.
What does that look like in practice? We:
- Continue transforming the EY audit with our multi-year US$1B investment in technology and talent — an initiative that’s redefining how we perform audits, develop our people and serve our clients. We’re already using AI and advanced data analytics in our audits, and expanding our use of AI and agentic AI, as well as other cutting-edge technologies to enhance audit quality, drive efficiencies and provide better insights.
- Invest in our people through expanded career experiences, building broader skillsets and deepening their business acumen. Through these opportunities, we’re developing well-rounded auditors with the capabilities and perspectives to offer clients fresh thinking and leading practices.
- Approach our work with a continuous improvement mindset, which we call the EY Way. This moves us forward as we continue to innovate and perform work earlier in the audit, while providing a distinctive experience for our clients and our people. We bring to bear the skills and experience of our people and technology to perform a modernized, streamlined, risk-based audit that provides timely sector insights.
- Address the dynamic risks faced by the companies that we audit, and we continue to engage with stakeholders to address topics such as technology transformation, the evolving fraud landscape, cybersecurity, sustainability, culture and the attractiveness of the profession.
The EY audit promotes confidence in financial reporting and, in turn, the capital markets. With audit quality, independence, accountability and integrity as our foundation, we’ll continue to evolve how we work and shape the future of the EY audit. We are anticipating the needs of tomorrow and leading the way with confidence.
Audit quality is our foundation, empowering teams with advanced tools and a culture of innovation. This purposeful work represents one more way we help build confidence in Canadian businesses and capital markets.
