Audit clients: What you need to know about digital authorizations

One digital authorization for all of your audit confirmations

Audit confirmations are essential for any successful financial audit. But obtaining audit confirmations from third parties (like banks and law firms) can be a time-consuming process for your auditors. Non-responses from mail, fax, and email are common, creating unnecessary work for auditors and causing delays in completing your audit.

That’s where Confirmation comes in. Our online platform helps your auditors get the information they need — quickly and securely — from banks, law firms, customers, and suppliers you do business with.

Providing authorization to disclose information

You must authorize, via an electronic signature, to the confirming party (such as your bank) that it’s ok for them to disclose information to your auditor as part of the confirmation process. Confirmation’s platform makes this process quick and easy for you, with no papers to mail, fax, or scan. You don’t even need a Confirmation account. The short videos below explain more.
