Assurance services designed for growing businesses
As your business grows, so do the demands on your financial systems. Investors, lenders, and partners want reliable numbers — and even if you’re not legally required to have an audit, voluntary assurance can provide the credibility and clarity you need.
Our assurance reviews are designed to give growing companies peace of mind that their financial information is accurate, their risks are being managed, and their reporting meets the expectations of stakeholders.
Whether you’re seeking funding, preparing for expansion, or simply want greater control over your operations, our voluntary assurance services can strengthen trust and help your business move forward with confidence.
Flexible assurance support tailored to your needs
Every business is different, which is why our assurance services are fully flexible. Unlike statutory audits, which follow a rigid structure, voluntary assurance can be adapted to focus on the areas that matter most to you and your stakeholders.
We’ll work with you to design an assurance review that meets your goals — whether that’s validating financial statements, testing internal controls, or providing reassurance to investors. Many of our clients also combine assurance with related services such as Management Accounts or Statutory Accounts to gain even deeper insight into their business performance.
This tailored approach means you get meaningful insights, without unnecessary admin or cost. With support ranging from one-off reviews to regular ongoing checks, you’ll always have the right level of assurance at the right time — giving you the clarity and confidence to grow.

What is assurance?
Assurance is an independent check of your financial information, designed to give business owners, boards, and stakeholders confidence that your numbers are accurate and reliable. It’s about having a professional, impartial view that confirms your reporting is trustworthy and fit for decision-making.
Unlike a statutory audit, assurance is voluntary. It’s more flexible, less formal, and usually far more cost-effective. The process can be tailored to the areas that matter most to your business — such as reviewing financial statements, testing internal controls, or assessing reporting systems — without adding unnecessary admin or cost.
The aim is simple: to provide trust, transparency, and peace of mind. Whether you’re seeking investment, applying for finance, preparing for expansion, or simply want extra confidence in your reporting, assurance strengthens your credibility and helps you make better business decisions.
Who benefits most from assurance services?
Voluntary assurance isn’t just for big corporations — it’s designed for ambitious SMEs, owner-managed businesses, and organisations that want extra confidence without the burden of a full audit.
- Growing SMEs: If you’re preparing for investment, expansion, or financing, assurance reassures banks and investors that your numbers are reliable and your business is well-managed.
- Owner-managed businesses: Running a business means balancing strategy with day-to-day admin. Assurance gives you peace of mind that your finances are in order, freeing you to focus on growth.
- Boards & directors: Independent oversight ensures directors can rely on accurate reporting to plan ahead, manage risks, and demonstrate accountability to stakeholders.
- Stakeholder-focused organisations: For companies where reputation and trust matter, assurance adds credibility and transparency — even when a statutory audit isn’t required.

FAQ ‘s
What’s the difference between assurance and a statutory audit?
A statutory audit is a legal requirement for certain companies and involves a detailed, formal review of financial statements, systems, and controls. Assurance is voluntary — it’s more flexible, less formal, and cost-effective. It focuses only on the areas that matter most to your business and stakeholders, giving you credibility and peace of mind without the audit burden.
Why would my business need assurance if it’s not required by law?
Even if you don’t need a statutory audit, assurance adds value. It reassures banks, investors, and stakeholders that your numbers are accurate and reliable. It also gives owners and directors confidence in decision-making, helps identify risks early, and strengthens your business reputation.
How much does assurance cost?
The cost depends on the size of your business, the level of review required, and whether you want one-off or ongoing support. Voluntary assurance is generally far more affordable than a statutory audit because it’s tailored to your needs. Contact us for a personalised quote that reflects your situation.
Who carries out the assurance review?
Our team of qualified chartered accountants carry out the review independently, applying professional standards to check the accuracy of your accounts and the strength of your financial systems. You get an expert, objective view you can rely on.
Will assurance slow down my business processes?
No — voluntary assurance is designed to be efficient and flexible. We focus only on the key areas that matter most, so you gain valuable insights without unnecessary admin or disruption to your business.
Can assurance be combined with other services?
Yes. Many clients choose to combine assurance with Management Accounts or Bookkeeping for even deeper insights. This creates a complete picture of your finances, helping you monitor performance, manage risks, and plan with confidence.
