Controls that survive a second look
From Taplow we review internal control design and operation so UK finance teams stop presenting policies that cannot be re-performed when auditors ask for evidence.

What you take home
Owned control artefacts—not a black-box opinion that vanishes when the consultant leaves.
-
Narratives your owners can keep
Control descriptions and evidence paths written so a new finance lead can explain the cycle without a private briefing.
-
Samples that survive challenge
Schedules drawn from real periods, with exceptions rated by reporting and fraud impact—not by how neat the policy binder looks.
-
Clear limits
We name advisory “controls,” ownership without authority, and charts of maturity that cannot be re-performed.
“We thought segregation was solid. The review showed secondary approval was the same person with a different login after the system cutover—policy said dual control; operation did not.”
