Certain types of entities must have their financial reports audited by a registered company auditor.
A company (other than a small proprietary company), registered scheme (managed investment scheme) or disclosing entity (a body that holds enhanced disclosure securities) must have its annual financial report audited and obtain an auditor’s report.
However, a proprietary company may be exempt from having its financial report audited (see Regulatory Guide 115 and CO 98/1417 Audit Relief for Proprietary Companies) or may otherwise be eligible for audit relief.
Businesses and professionals who hold client money — including lawyers, conveyancers, and real estate agents — are required by law to operate compliant trust accounts.
These trust accounts must undergo an annual trust account audit, as mandated by Consumer Affairs Victoria or the Victorian Legal Services Board, depending on the licence type.
At BHT Partners (Audit), we’re accredited by CPA Australia and registered with ASIC. We provide independent, timely audit reporting services to help you meet your legal obligations with confidence.
If you have a self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF), you’re responsible for ensuring it complies with its trust deed and super laws.
A registered SMSF auditor must review the fund annually. We offer fully compliant SMSF audits, examining the financial records of your fund and ensuring alignment with ATO and ASIC regulations.
Our team is based in Melbourne, but we support clients with SMSF audits Australia-wide — from individual trustees to accountants.
As a lot owner, you may be financially and legally responsible for poor financial management by your owners corporation (formerly body corporate).
Owners corporations are responsible for the actions of their delegates, such as a committee member or manager. Seeking a professional audit and compliance partner helps ensure financial responsibilities are being met.
Internal audit plays a key role in strengthening organisational performance. It helps evaluate and improve risk management, controls, and governance processes.
BHT Partners (Audit) works with management teams to conduct structured reviews of systems and operations. These internal audits can identify control gaps, process inefficiencies, or innovation opportunities — and are aligned with your strategic goals.
Government grants often require recipients to submit financial audit reporting or acquittal reports to funding bodies.
This is something to consider if you’re thinking about applying for a government grant for the first time.
We conduct timely, accurate grant audits to meet these obligations and help businesses retain current funding and access future opportunities.
Most not-for-profit entities are registered with the ACNC, which sets financial reporting requirements based on the organisation’s size and structure.
In addition to ACNC rules, many associations require annual audits to be carried out as set out in their constitutions. Members may also vote to have a financial year audited. We assist NFPs and charities with all compliance audit needs.
