Statutory Auditors
The statutory audit verifies the sincerity and conformity of an enterprise’s annual accounts. In France, the auditor’s office is mandatory for certain companies, such as public limited companies (SAs) and limited partnerships (SCAs), if they exceed certain financial thresholds, as mentioned above.
The auditor is a task entrusted to an independent audit professional of the company. Its purpose is to ensure that the financial information published by the company is reliable and that it complies with the accounting and tax rules in force. The auditor therefore carries out an audit of the annual accounts, the accounting and financial documents of the undertaking and the internal control systems.
The auditor shall then deliver an opinion on the sincerity and regularity of the annual accounts. It can also make recommendations to improve the quality of the company’s accounting and financial processes. The auditor’s report shall be communicated to the company’s shareholders at the annual general meeting and shall be lodged with the Registry of the Commercial Court.
In summary, the Office of the Auditor is a statutory audit mission that is mandatory in certain cases, which helps to ensure the reliability and conformity of an undertaking’s annual accounts. This task is entrusted to an independent audit professional of the company and leads to the drafting of a report for shareholders and filed with the Registry of the Commercial Court.
