Trust & Assurance exists for one reason: to give NSW trust-money holders assurance that is genuinely independent of the people who do the reconciliations.
Independence is the point. We do not audit books we keep. Statutory trust account audits are arranged by referral to an independent registered auditor, so the assurance you rely on is genuinely independent of the people who do the reconciliations. Our in-house work — outgoings assurance, forensic investigations and controls health checks — is delivered by Local Knowledge Pty Ltd under a signed engagement.
We never audit books we keep. Statutory trust account audits are arranged by referral to an independent registered auditor — the one thing your own team, by definition, cannot provide.
Led by Graham Chee, a Fellow of CPA Australia — institutional assurance standards applied to trust-money holders across NSW.
We point at the legislation, not at competitors. Every recommendation maps to a named Act, and we promise reasonable assurance — never a guarantee no one will ever do wrong.
Local Knowledge Pty Ltd is an established CPA public practice and registered tax agent — so your accounting, tax and bookkeeping can sit alongside the assurance work, deliberately lane-separated.
Operated by Local Knowledge Pty Ltd, part of the Local Knowledge group. Principal: Graham Chee, FCPA.
