Ecovis recommends and assists client in implementing improved internal controls

Background

One of Uruguay’s leading passenger transport companies, which is regulated by the authorities, requested a review of its purchasing processes and cash movements.

Problem

The results of the review showed that certain procedures did not follow good practices in this area and revealed serious internal control weaknesses. Incidences that had caused economic damage to the company were also detected.

Solution

Ecovis made recommendations on how to improve the internal control system in the areas of purchasing and cash management in order to prevent unwanted situations from occurring in the future.

Currently

The company was very satisfied with the work carried out and appointed us as permanent external auditors, thus replacing their previous external auditors.
