Audit and accounting services in Islamabad
Islamabad hosts federal ministries, SECP's head office, embassies and a large number of international NGOs and development projects. That makes donor audits, project accounting and regulatory filings a bigger share of the work than in most cities.
Our Islamabad clients include NGOs funded by bilateral and multilateral donors, consultancies working on government contracts, and technology companies in the capital's growing IT sector.
Donor reporting that matches funder rules
Each donor has its own eligibility rules, budget lines and audit terms of reference. We audit project accounts against the grant agreement and help NGOs set up fund accounting that makes the next audit straightforward.
