Message from the Chairman
Auditing in Depth and Creation of New Audit Value
With all your support, Yaesu Audit & Co. is celebrating the 55th anniversary of its establishment this year.
During these 55 years, we have played a part in the infrastructure underpinning sound capital markets by granting social credibility to financial statements through financial audits.
“contribute to the society with fairness”
This is the philosophy of Yaesu Audit & Co., which has been cultivated over the ages.
Based on this philosophy, we have been striving to provide high-quality audits through sincere conversation at each audit site and by deepening our understanding of our clients' current situations.
We believe that the social role of audits, which is to identify reliable financial information and to make fair judgment and assurance, is becoming increasingly important in these days where, we could say, “overwhelming” information comes and goes in the digital space.
It is said that “continuity is the father of success,” but we do not believe continuity means not making changes.
We are making steady efforts, bearing in mind that audit quality that meets the needs of the times cannot be sustained unless we constantly update new audit methods, knowledge and quality management thinking and continue to innovate.
For example, IT has enabled the audit processes to proceed more efficiently.
Automated tasks and data analysis can save time and resources. Also, IT-based data analysis helps to improve the accuracy of risk assessments.
By covering enormous amounts of data, IT has also created an environment where hidden risks can be identified, and the data to be audited can be properly stored by taking security measures and can be accessible when needed.
In the area of audit quality management, we have shifted from conventional quality management, which was oriented toward the relative uniformization and homogenization of audit standards, to a risk-based quality management system that takes organizational culture and scalability of Yaesu Audit & Co, and the characteristics of each audit team and individual audit member into deeper consideration.
While responding to these changes, Yaesu Audit & Co. has values that will remain unchanged and we cherish throughout the ages.
Even with the acceleration of advanced digitalization and AI, we believe that the universal value of our organization lies in its “people” and good teamwork.
Yaesu Audit & Co. will work as one to develop a solid and open organization and create new audit value, emphasizing the humanity, expertise and diversity of each partner and staff member, while broadly incorporate global perspectives as a member of the Kreston network.
