What We Do

Banking & Financial Services

A full BFSI practice - statutory, concurrent, revenue, inspection and treasury audit for banks; and for NBFCs, everything from registration and risk-based internal audit to KYC audit, loan file verification, physical verification and certification.

A dedicated BFSI team

Banking and NBFC audit is its own discipline. The reporting formats, the classification norms, the supervisory expectations and the pace of a concurrent engagement have little in common with a corporate audit, and the NBFC framework has tightened faster than almost any other area of Indian regulation. The firm maintains a separate BFSI team for exactly that reason, and its support staff includes former bankers.
