COMPANIES REQUIRED TO SUBMIT AUDITED FINANCIALS IN BAHRAIN

The primary goal of a financial statement audit is to provide independent or third-party assurance that management has presented a “true and fair” assessment of a company’s financial performance in its financial statements. The auditor’s report attesting to the fairness of the financial statements and related disclosures is the result of this examination. When the financial statements are distributed to the intended receivers or stakeholders, the auditor’s report must be included.
