“It is quite normal to conduct this kind of audit fairly regularly, particularly if departments are frequently reorganised or staff turnover is high. We also think the procedure should be repeated at Group level to secure the processes, and because of the financial benefits.”
Abdelaziz Chaachoui, accounting manager at Elivia

“It was a positive exercise for us. Although the amounts recovered are not that substantial, they nonetheless represent revenue that would have been lost had we not conducted the audit”
Séverine Perraud, Group head of accounting and consolidation

“We were interested in the idea of using the FEC data for quantitative and qualitative analyses. Instead of producing it solely as an accounting obligation, it is used as a tool to serve the company.”

“The important thing for us is to understand how anomalies occurred so that we can correct matters in future.”
Thierry Pralong, Head of Accounting Department at Chantiers de l’Atlantique

Stanislas Renaudin, Directeur du CSP AccIS France

“We have learned lessons and seen areas for improvement from each ABBD finding”
Eric Estrabols, subsidiary ledgers manager at Bouygues Telecom

“The audit was very positive because it enabled us to recover substantial, high impact amounts”
Marc Fournier, head of financial accounting and reporting at Novartis Pharma

Éric Samson, European Tax Director at Aperam Group
