After reaching the engagement letter with the client, the implementation beginsHong Kong corporate auditWork, the first step is to do the bank confirmation letter. Auditors are required to verify bank deposits (including zero balance accounts), transactions and information with financial institutions, unless there is sufficient evidence that bank deposits (including zero balance accounts), transactions and information with financial institutions are not material to the financial statements and that the risk of material misstatement associated with them is low (depending on the auditor's professional judgment).

The format of bank confirmation varies from auditor to auditor. In general, our auditor uses unlisted information for confirmation, which requires the bank to confirm the amount of the customer's deposit in their institution and whether it is restricted. Not specifying the information can achieve the integrity of the proof.

Of course, different banks have different requirements, and the final format can be adjusted through negotiation.
