Protect What You've Built.
Know your money is safe and your numbers are true, even when you're not there. We find the gaps, fix the controls and investigate when something goes wrong.
Warning signs owners shouldn't ignore.
None of these prove fraud on their own. But each one means your money is less protected than it should be.
Sales are up, cash isn't
The business looks busy, but the bank balance doesn't reflect it.
One person controls everything
The same person approves, pays, records and reconciles.
Stock or fuel doesn't add up
Shortages are explained away and never fully reconciled.
Key staff never take leave
Someone resists handing over their work, even for a few days.
You only know what you're told
You live abroad and rely on reports prepared by the people you need to check.
How will you protect your business?
| Hiring in-house | Glenrich Risk & Fraud |

| Expertise: One person's skills | A CPA-qualified team: audit, controls and fraud |
| Independence: Reports to the managers they check | Fully independent of your staff |
| If fraud happens: Rarely trained for forensic work | Confidential, evidence-based investigation |
| Depends on the person | When problems are found: Early, through regular testing |

| Flexibility: Independence: Varies by firm | Project or ongoing, scaled up or down |
Most owners choose between three options. Here's how they compare.
Find the gaps. Fix the controls. Investigate when it matters.
Assurance
Outsourced or co-sourced internal audit that independently tests whether your controls and operations work as intended, across branches, sites and departments.
Controls
We review controls over cash, procurement, payments, inventory, payroll and reporting, find the gaps and design practical fixes.
Investigation
Confidential investigation of suspected fraud, theft, misconduct or irregularities, with clear, evidence-based findings and the loss quantified.
Prevention
We identify where fraud could happen in your business and put prevention and detection controls in place.
Compliance
Checks on how well you meet tax, regulatory, licensing, contractual and internal policy requirements.
Strategy
Risk frameworks covering ownership, appetite, key risk indicators and board reporting, or a focused assessment behind a big decision.
Start with one service or combine them. Every engagement has an agreed scope and fee before work begins.
We Look at Risk Across the Whole Business.
Risk doesn't sit in one department. We look across every area that drives your business, to find where exposure exists and how different risks connect.
Finance
Cash, payments, liquidity, credit, foreign exchange and the reliability of financial reporting.
Operations
Processes, procurement, inventory, suppliers, projects and business continuity.
Compliance
Tax, licensing, regulatory, contractual and industry obligations.
People
Key-person dependency, segregation of duties, conduct, skills and succession.
Technology
System access, data integrity, cyber exposure and reliance on digital platforms
Strategy & Reputation
Growth plans, investments and the confidence of customers, investors and regulators.
Discreet, independent and practical.
Practical, Not Theoretical
Clear findings, prioritised actions and support to fix what matters most.
Finance-Led Expertise
CPA-qualified professionals who understand how money, controls and reporting really work.
Independent and Confidential
We never audit work we prepared ourselves, and handle every document securely.
Sized for Growing Businesses
Proper audit and risk disciplines, scaled to your size and budget.
Frequently Asked Questions
Act quickly and confidentially. Limit who knows, preserve documents and system records, and avoid confronting anyone before the facts are established. Contact us, and we'll advise on immediate steps and scope an investigation.
Not unless it's necessary. Much of the early work can be done from records. We agree with you when and how staff are involved.
Our investigations produce clear, evidence-based reports that can support disciplinary action, insurance claims or legal proceedings. We work alongside your legal advisers where required.
External audit gives an opinion on your annual financial statements for shareholders and regulators. Internal audit works for management and the board all year, testing whether controls, processes and risk management work, and recommending improvements.
No. Our work focuses on internal audit, controls, fraud risk, investigations and risk management. We can work alongside your external auditors and help you prepare for their audit.
Yes. We can act as your full internal audit function, or work alongside your in-house team, reporting to management, the board or an audit committee.
We don't audit work we've prepared ourselves. Where we provide both services, we separate the teams and scope, or recommend an alternative approach.
No. Growing businesses often benefit most, because controls haven't kept pace with growth. We scale the scope to your size, risks and budget.
