Werner Petrus Basson

Werner’s last position within KPMG was in the Accounting Advisory Services, where his primary responsibility was to provide technical accounting advice on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), South African Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (SA GAAP) and Standards of Generally Recognised Accounting Practice (GRAP) related accounting issues. Public sector experience has also been gained, where he assisted the Auditor General in the audit of the Department of Health, and assisting KPMG in the audit of various municipalities on behalf of the Auditor General. He also assisted in the preparation of GRAP compliant Annual financial statements, addressed audit queries (disclaimers and qualifications) raised by the Auditor General and suggested financial controls to be implemented for various local municipalities.

Werner proactively ensures that he is familiar with all areas of an accounting advisory and audit by seeking opportunities to work across all aspects of an accounting advisory engagement and an audit.
