External Audit 

The audit done by a third party is known as an external audit. The third party is someone who is not associated with your company, such as auditing firms and tax agencies. An external audit is a way to confirm that the financial records kept in a company are real and correct. It shows a transparent picture of the company’s financial situation.

Similar to internal audits, the main objective of an external audit is to assess the precision of accounting records. External audits are often demanded by investors to ensure trust in the accuracy of their business’s data and information. After conducting an audit on your business, external auditors present an audit report containing comprehensive information about the entire process and any identified issues.
