A characteristic of our global blueprint is to promote the delivery of steady and excellent client service on a whole.
Having a powerful process of quality control is one of the most important ways to assure you that we deliver the leading services to our clients.
To accomplish this, each member firm submits to an inspection of its quality control system under the Grant Thornton Audit Review (GTAR) at least once every three years.
The GTAR monitors conformity with professional regulations and global audit policies. It is conducted by independent partners and managers from other member firms under the direction of the global audit quality control leader.
The inspection process includes an evaluation of the member firm’s assurance policies, benchmarking these against the international organisation. The team reviews financial statements, audit reports, engagement work papers and files, and interviews partners and staff.
The report on a firm’s quality-control system will report one of the following:
When the GTAR identifies a fault, the member firm is expected to address the deficiency and document its action plan to address the findings within a time-frame and submit relevant documentation. When follow up actions are required by member firms to address findings identified during the GTAR, a further visit or remote assessment is made to review progress in implementing these actions.
