“At Gerber & Co we employ seasoned auditors who have worked at the Big Firms. They are efficient, cost-effective and bring to the task a wealth of wisdom and experience. We take the words ‘Beyond BeanCounting’ seriously” – Roberto Moutinho CPA, Audit Partner

1. Reputation and Experience: Look for auditors with a solid reputation and extensive experience in your industry or sector.

2. Qualifications and Certifications: Ensure the auditor possesses relevant qualifications and certifications, such as Certified Public Accountant (CPA) or Chartered Accountant (CA).

3. Fair and Transparent Pricing: Expect detailed bills listing the work done and by whom. Where possible request a fixed fee or a not-to-exceed estimate. “Most new clients save 20% – 30% on what they previously paid – and receive much more from us” – Selwyn Gerber CPA Founding Partner

4. Industry Knowledge: Seek auditors with a deep understanding of your industry’s regulations, standards, and specific challenges.

5. Added Value: Use a firm with a focus on providing more than just “check-list” audits. Expect advice and input on tightening financial controls and improving efficiencies.
