When are audits statutory?

Audits are a statutory service in Finland. Audit provisions are mainly set out in the Auditing Act. According to Chapter 2, Section 2 of the Auditing Act, ‘an auditor shall be appointed for a corporation or a foundation, and an audit shall be carried out’ when at least two of the following conditions are met in both the last completed financial year and the financial year immediately preceding it:

The balance sheet total exceeds 100 000 euros;
Net sales or comparable revenue exceeds 200 000 euros; or
The average number of employees exceeds three.

A corporation may be audited even if the above conditions are not met. A corporation must carry out an audit if, for example, its articles of association, deed of partnership or rules include provisions regarding an audit or the appointment of an auditor.

A corporation or other body subject to an accounting requirement may decide, voluntarily, to have an audit carried out despite not meeting the above conditions, or despite an audit not being required by its articles of association, rules or another, similar document.
