Why hire a business auditor: role, missions, and benefits for your company

An Expert for Financial Transparency

Many business leaders are not precisely aware of the role of a statutory auditor. Yet, this expert in the legal audit of accounts plays a fundamental role in verifying annual accounts and ensuring their transparency. Engaging their services enhances the financial credibility of your company.

What does a statutory auditor do?

The statutory auditor is an independent professional who certifies the accuracy, honesty, and fair representation of the annual accounts, in accordance with Belgian legal provisions.

Their intervention offers several major benefits:

  • Strengthen the confidence of investors, business partners, and financial institutions

  • Certify the figures and validate financial reports

  •  Identify financial risks and internal weaknesses

  • Advise on internal controls to mitigate risks of fraud or accounting errors

In certain cases, the use of an approved statutory auditor is legally required (for example: exceeding certain thresholds, SA-type structure, or large NPOs).

Why is it a strategic asset?

Besides legal obligations, engaging a statutory auditor allows for:

  • Improving corporate governance

  • Enhancing brand image with partners

  • Anticipating tax or social audits

  • Facilitating access to financing or investment
