These Terms govern (A) your use of this website and (B) our professional engagements. By using this site or instructing us, you agree to these Terms.
A. Website Terms of Use
Content on this site is general information only and not audit, tax, legal, or investment advice. Decisions should be made on the basis of a signed engagement and evidence obtained for your case.
Do not attempt to interfere with the site, scrape at scale, or upload malicious content. You may link to public pages with attribution.
All text, graphics, and redacted samples remain our intellectual property. You may view them internally; redistribution or publication requires written consent.
Site analytics are used to operate and improve the site. For engagement data, see Data Handling → /data-handling.
Links to third-party sites are provided for convenience; we are not responsible for their content or practices.
We provide non-statutory financial due diligence, AUP/Review, and tax compliance reviews. We preserve independence and do not issue statutory audit opinions or file returns. See Independence → /independence.
Work begins when both sides sign the engagement and the initial invoice is received. You will provide timely access to records, systems (read-only where possible), and on-site facilities.
Unless otherwise agreed, deliverables include a one-page verdict, a findings register, and an evidence appendix (photos, tie-outs, redacted bank lines). Delivery timelines are estimates and depend on evidence access.
Our procedures are agreed-upon and sampling-based. Findings reflect the information and samples available. We do not guarantee the absence of fraud, error, or non-compliance outside the agreed scope.
Fixed fees for a defined scope; change requests may adjust fees and timelines.
Travel & out-of-pocket billed at cost (economy air/rail, mid-range hotel).
Prices exclude indirect taxes; applicable VAT/GST/withholding are borne by the client unless prohibited by law.
50% to kick off, 50% at draft (before final one-pager), unless stated otherwise.
Payment due 7 calendar days from invoice date. Late balances may accrue 1.5% per month (or the legal maximum, if lower).
Currency: USD / EUR / GBP / SGD (as quoted).
If scope, sampling, locations, or timelines change, we will confirm impacts before proceeding.
Either party may cancel for convenience with 7 days’ written notice; fees for work performed and non-cancelable expenses remain payable.
We keep your information confidential and use it only to deliver the engagement. Access is limited on a least-privilege basis with logs during the engagement. See Data Handling → /data-handling. We can sign a mutual NDA on request.
We may use vetted subcontractors for specialized tasks with your prior written consent; they are bound by confidentiality and data safeguards.
Both parties will comply with applicable anti-bribery, sanctions, and export-control laws. We may refuse work that would breach these laws or our independence.
Deliverables are for your organization’s internal use for the stated purpose. No third party may rely on them without our prior written consent.
We retain IP in our methods, templates, and report formats. You receive a non-exclusive, internal licence to use deliverables for the agreed purpose.
During the engagement and for 12 months thereafter, neither party will solicit the other’s project team for employment without consent (general advertising excluded).
We provide services with reasonable care and skill. Except as required by law, we disclaim all other warranties (including fitness for a particular purpose).
Our aggregate liability arising from an engagement is capped at the fees paid for that engagement.
We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages, including lost profits or business interruption.
Neither party is liable for delays caused by events beyond reasonable control (e.g., extreme weather, public-health restrictions, strikes, utility failures).
Either party may terminate for material breach if uncured within 10 days of notice. Confidentiality, IP/licensing, payment obligations, limitations of liability, and dispute terms survive termination.
These Terms and each engagement are governed by Singapore law. Any dispute not resolved amicably within 30 days shall be finally settled by SIAC arbitration in Singapore, in English, by one arbitrator. Judgment may be entered on the award in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Official notices must be in writing and sent to the addresses/emails stated in the engagement letter, deemed received on the next business day in CST (UTC+8) or the recipient’s local business day, as applicable.
Each engagement letter (including these Terms and any annexes) is the entire agreement for that engagement and supersedes prior discussions on the same subject. If there is a conflict, the engagement letter controls.
