External Auditor

An external auditor is an independent professional who reviews a company's financial statements and operations to ensure accuracy and compliance with laws and regulations. They assess whether the financial reports fairly represent the company's financial position and performance. By examining documents, conducting interviews, and testing processes, external auditors help build trust with shareholders, regulators, and the public. Their findings are usually summarized in an audit report, which provides insights and recommendations for improvement, enhancing the overall credibility of the organization’s financial practices.
