Fewer findings every year.

Clients who bring us in before the external audit see their management-letter points fall year on year. Reconciliations are done, registers agree, documents are filed, and the audit gets shorter and cheaper.

How an engagement runs

The same four stages whether it is a monthly bookkeeping retainer, a transfer pricing file or a forensic investigation.

Scope

We agree what is in and out, who signs off, the timetable and the fee before any work starts.

Fieldwork

Records, interviews, testing and analysis, on site or remote, with weekly progress updates.

Report

A draft for management comment, then a signed final report written for the people who have to act on it.

Follow-up

Recommendations tracked to closure, and a plan for the next cycle so the second year is faster than the first.

We turn complex financial data into decisions you can act on. Integrity is the foundation of every engagement.

Common questions

Short answers. For anything else, ask us directly.

Do you prepare financial statements as well as audit them?

We prepare financial statements under IFRS, IFRS for SMEs and IPSAS for clients we do not audit, and we provide internal audit and forensic services. Independence rules mean we will not do both preparation and external audit for the same entity.

Which frameworks and standards do you work to?

IFRS and IFRS for SMEs for financial reporting, IPSAS for public-sector entities, ISA for audit work, the IIA's IPPF for internal audit, COSO ERM for risk, OECD guidelines for transfer pricing, and King IV and GRI for integrated reporting.

Can you handle group consolidations and multinational structures?

Yes. Group consolidations, intercompany reconciliations, transfer pricing documentation and withholding tax across jurisdictions are core work, with experience in the USA, India, Madagascar, China, South Africa and Namibia.

How do fees work?

Fixed fees for defined engagements such as financial statements, tax returns and valuations; monthly retainers for bookkeeping and payroll; and time-based fees for investigations and advisory where the scope cannot be fixed up front. Every engagement starts with a written scope and fee.

Are you registered to work with government and parastatals?

Batho Analytica is a registered supplier with the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority and a BICA member firm, and applies IPSAS for public-sector reporting.
