Sarbanes-Oxley readiness and facilitation service
Deloitte is the global service provider for Sarbanes- Oxley readiness. Our China based team has fulfilled several roles: primarily assisting with documenting their processes and controls; performing walk- throughs; and assisting in embedding the corporate Sarbanes methodology within the local business units.
An additional role we have fulfilled is performing management testing of internal controls. This has been done by assisting the company’s internal audit department (Group Audit Services) in executing their testing methodology.
Deloitte’s multidisciplinary approach can help you address the factors that affect the success of your internal control program, including people, risk, accountability, communication and monitoring to sustain Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.
- Start with the end in mind
- Commit and organise
- Select a suitable internal control framework
- Establish an internal control program
- Assist management with remediation and management testing on internal controls
The benefits of a strong control structure can deliver business value far beyond just mandatory compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley regulation. A host of benefits could result – improved flow of information, better management of resource, streamlined operations, improved investor relations and an enhanced reputation for leadership and integrity in corporate governance and reliable financial reporting.
