SMSF audit provider to launch new offering
The self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF) audit industry is disparate and new pathways are needed to help practices collaborate efficiently and simplify administrative processes, according to SMSF audit specialist, Evolv.
Evolv executive director, Ron Phipps-Ellis, said the new offering would future-proof firms and help auditors feel positively about client retention.
"We saw a gap in the market place whereby Evolv can perform the majority of the SMSF audit procedures on behalf of auditors and you rely on us to be your trusted super audit resourcing solution," he said.
"You review our work and as your clients' trusted adviser, you continue to sign the audit report and charge the audit fee you are comfortable with."
Phipps-Ellis said the newest market of auditors needed an advantage moving forward and could benefit from Evolv's method to be collaborative rather than competitive.
"Our vision is to lead the way in these disruptive times by introducing new ways to do audits and bring that to an appreciative audience," he said.
"These new offerings provide an alternate way to collaborate and do our jobs more efficiently — together."
