Audit and Compliance
We understand—and can explain
Skadi sits between your audit and compliance functions and your front office when it comes to reviews of controls and procedures. And because we speak the same language as your front office, we can quickly understand and empathise with the problems they face. And that’s not all. Because we have the same industry knowledge, we’ll help save valuable time and resources across your control function teams.
“With our years of hands-on experience, we understand how people across different banking departments work. And can face up to the hard but necessary conversations of a detailed review without fear or favour.”
Damian Taylor, Director

Without fear or favour
When you place Skadi’s front office experts within your control function teams, you can rest assured that we’ll ask the difficult questions that need to be asked.
