A culture built to deliver quality audits
At BDO, audit quality is at the core of every decision, investment and judgment we make.
Audit quality forms the foundation of trust in financial markets. Providing effective, efficient, technology-enabled and technically compliant audits is crucial to gain confidence from regulators, investors and other stakeholders.
Our clients can expect a thoughtful audit experience provided by skilled professionals. We provide investors and other users of the financial statements with independent audits conducted by professionals who maintain deep industry knowledge, use optimized technology and data analytics, and apply a reliable professional judgment framework to deliver a precise and comprehensive audit.
Our teams work to enhance audit quality not only through ensuring compliance with auditing standards but also by supplying timely insights and through exceptional client communication.
Our Approach to Audit Quality
Our commitment to quality and mindset of continuous improvement reflects our core purpose and values. To continuously improve audit quality, we have an integrated framework for delivering audit quality at BDO referred to as SEED: exercising an appropriate level of skepticism, having the right expertise, timely and thoroughly executing the audit, and going in depth. This approach is driving important behavioral expectations across all levels of our assurance practice.
Transformative Actions Driving High Quality Audits
In 2025, we are focused on a deliberate approach to strengthen our overall system of quality management and the standardization of certain policies, processes, and controls with data and transformative technology as the backbone of our transformation. This is further allowing us to better manage and monitor risks while maintaining consistency and reliability across our audits.
The significant investments in quality initiatives BDO has made over the past several years are positively impacting our audit quality. Learn more about the transformative actions taken to drive high quality audits.
An update to our Audit Quality Report will be released in the summer of 2025.
Our Future in Focus: Audit Innovation and Enablement
By investing in our audit methodology, technology, and practical learning programs, we are equipping our professionals with the resources and opportunities they need to think critically and conduct audits to the highest standards, fulfilling our commitment to quality.
We are further committed to aligning our assurance strategy and deploying resources to manage necessary change and adapt to emerging global opportunities and risks impacting our clients such as economic conditions, technology, and evolving laws and regulations.
Our actions are designed to continuously improve our quality, being transparent about the opportunities and challenges we face, and sharing publicly how we are addressing them to reinforce the confidence of the capital markets.
