About the Firm

Precision built from
Big 4 discipline.

Muhammad & Co. was established by Fellow Chartered Accountants who trained at Big 4 firms and observed a consistent gap in the Pakistan market: mid-size corporates and groups could not access audit and advisory quality commensurate with their complexity, at a price point that made sense for their scale.

We were built to close that gap. Our practice is structured around three non-negotiables: qualified oversight on every engagement, transparent communication with clients, and work that is technically defensible under scrutiny.

01

Qualified oversight on every engagement

Every audit and advisory engagement is overseen by a Fellow Chartered Accountant. Junior staff are supervised and reviewed — not autonomous.

02

Technically defensible work

Our documentation, methodologies, and conclusions are prepared to withstand scrutiny — from regulators, lenders, investors, or successors.

03

Pakistan expertise, global perspective

Deep familiarity with SECP, FBR, and SBP frameworks — complemented by international exposure through our group's work across UAE, UK, and Singapore.

Audit Methodology

Audit that protects,
not just certifies.

Our audit approach is risk-based and substantive — designed to identify issues management should know about, not only to satisfy a filing requirement. We conduct each engagement in four structured phases.

01

Planning & risk assessment

Understanding the entity, its environment, and its significant risk areas. Setting materiality. Designing the audit response.

02

Controls evaluation

Testing the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls relevant to the financial statements.

03

Substantive procedures

Direct testing of account balances, transactions, and disclosures. Independent confirmations, analytical procedures, and physical verification where required.

04

Completion & reporting

Management letter with findings. Auditor's report in accordance with ISAs. Presentation to audit committee or board as required.

Audit Scope

What an engagement covers

A standard financial statement audit with Muhammad & Co. covers the following as a minimum.

Complete balance sheet verification including all asset classes and liabilities
Revenue recognition testing and cut-off procedures
Related party transaction review and disclosure adequacy
Bank confirmations and cash reconciliation
Trade receivables and payables confirmations
Fixed asset register verification and depreciation review
Management representation letter
Management letter with internal control observations
Finance BPO

Your finance function.
Run by ours.

Muhammad & Co.'s Finance BPO practice provides the operational backbone for the finance function of businesses that prefer to outsource rather than build in-house. The same team that conducts your audit can also run your books — creating a seamless, single-firm relationship.

The OmniCore connection. For clients with international operations — particularly those operating in or expanding to the UAE — our Finance BPO capability extends seamlessly through OmniCore Consulting in Dubai. One relationship. Cross-border delivery.

"The audit team at Muhammad & Co. approached our engagement with a level of rigour we had not experienced from smaller firms previously. The management letter findings alone identified process gaps that saved us significantly in the following year."

"We outsourced our entire finance back office to Muhammad & Co. three years ago. The quality of our monthly reporting improved immediately and we haven't had a compliance issue since. Genuinely the right decision for a business at our scale."
