Australian financial services (“AFS”) licencees must lodge their profit and loss statement and balance sheet (together with form FS70) and an audit report (together with form FS71) annually with Australian Securities & Investments Commission(“ASIC”). The special purpose audit is required to ensure that AFS licencees comply with their AFS licence conditions, the Corporations Act and Regulations.

Managed Investment Schemes

Responsible entities for Managed Investment Schemes must appoint an auditor of the Compliance Plan for the Scheme. The auditor must conduct an audit of the Compliance Plan within three months of the end of the financial year of the Registered scheme and provide an audit report to the Responsible Entity.

The landlord is required to supply the tenant with an annual audited statement of outgoings within three months of the end of the accounting period. The statement must be audited by a registered auditor.

Commercial Leases

In addition to the rent, the tenant will often be responsible for reimbursing the landlord for outgoings payable in accordance with the terms of the lease.

IAS has the experience and necessary qualifications to perform all types of Outgoings audits.

TRUST ACCOUNTS

  • Motor Dealers and Chattel Auctioneers Act 2014
  • Debt Collectors (Field Agents and Collection Agents) Act 2014
