Internal Audit

Assurance that keeps pace with how fast you are scaling.

The challenge: new entities, acquisitions and projects stretch a control environment faster than internal teams can keep up.

We provide independent, risk-based internal audit across your group, reviewing the controls behind your growth and reporting to your audit committee in clear, decision-ready terms, with every finding tracked to closure.

What you gain: a current view of real exposure, controls that hold as you expand, and board confidence backed by evidence.

How we work with you

  • Group and subsidiary control reviews
  • Internal audit planning aligned to your growth agenda
  • Board and audit committee reporting
  • Fully managed or co-sourced delivery
  • Integrity and fraud risk reviews

Governance, risk and performance excellence

In a market moving this quickly, how an organisation is governed has become a competitive advantage.

Strong governance, dependable controls and clear-eyed risk oversight are what reassure regulators, attract investment and let leadership commit to bold decisions. They are also what hold an organisation together as it adds entities, partners and complexity.

We help Saudi organisations turn these from obligations into strengths: governance that earns trust, controls that protect value, and performance that can be measured and improved. The result is an organisation positioned to grow on credible, durable foundations.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. We support government-related and investment-backed entities with internal audit, risk and governance tailored to their accountability and transparency expectations.
