Auditing & Accounting Services

We are one of the leading firms of auditors and accountants in Egypt. We have been practising in Egypt since 1976 and employ a total of approximately 200 personnel, who are largely licensed accountants registered in Egypt. Our partners and professionals are either UK Chartered Accountants (CA) or USA Certified Public Accountants (CPA) who are also bilingual in Arabic and English. Since the law prohibits hiring expatriates in a profession such as ours, we have recruited what you might call "Egyptian expatriates". In other words, we have combined the best of both worlds, expatriate expertise and local experience.

Our Cairo office partners and executives are registered auditors and accountants with the following Egyptian Authorities:

  • General Register of Accountants and Auditors maintained by Ministry of Finance (main register)
  • Central Auditing Bureau - for auditing governmental bodies and public sector entities
  • Central Bank of Egypt
    - for bank audits

    - for public quoted companies, mutual funds and portfolio management company audits

Management Consultancy Service (MCS)

Our professionals work with clients to develop practical solutions to business and policy issues. We do not impose our ideas on clients, but rather assist them in succeeding by paying attention to their particular needs, and providing the relevant expertise for each case. Our specialists have in-depth understanding in a variety of business and functional areas. However, we ensure that each of our clients deals with a single partner who facilitates the coordination/channeling of services and resources to best meet their needs.

In this way, our clients gain direct access to our worldwide specialists and resources, without the difficulties and complexities of having to deal with different individuals or offices. When quoting for our advisory assignments, we first discuss the scope of our work, and agree with our clients the extent of their commitment, and the necessary stages at which they will be reviewing our results. Upon completion of our assignments, we specifically advise our clients on ways of solving their problems. We even go a step further, and assist their staff in the implementation of the recommendations. Where necessary, we train their staff to ensure that they understand and can effectively operate the new systems.
