👉 An auditor's role, particularly in the context of financial audits, involves systematically examining and evaluating a company's financial statements to ensure they are accurate, complete, and comply with relevant accounting standards and regulations. Auditors assess internal controls, verify transactions, and provide an independent opinion on the fairness and reliability of the financial reports. This process helps stakeholders, such as investors and regulators, make informed decisions by reducing the risk of financial misstatements or fraud. Auditors can be internal, working within the company, or external, hired by third parties to maintain objectivity and credibility.
