Confidential Forensic Accounting Audit

I need an experienced forensic accountant to carry out an independent, strictly confidential review of my Qatar-based company’s finances. I will provide the full set of recent bank statements together with the detailed Excel expense ledgers. Your mandate is to reconcile all capital contributions, client income, and outgoing payments, then isolate and quantify any personal or otherwise unauthorized use of company funds that may have been made through the corporate ATM card or related channels.

Because I do not have specific transactions flagged, I am asking for a comprehensive, end-to-end examination rather than a spot check. I only require one clear, defensible final report; interim updates are unnecessary unless you find a critical red flag that cannot wait.

To move forward, please outline:
• the methodology you would follow (e.g., data import, ledger reconstruction, variance analysis, source-document matching)
• confidentiality safeguards you normally put in place for sensitive shareholder disputes
• the documentation or additional authorizations you will need beyond the statements and spreadsheets already on hand
• an estimated timeline from kick-off to delivery of the final report, including time for any clarification calls

The finished deliverable should include:
1. A reconciled statement of capital, revenue, and expenses.
2. A schedule of all transactions identified as non-business with supporting evidence.
3. The total value of suspected misuse, broken down by category or individual if discernible.
4. A concise narrative suitable for internal and, if necessary, legal use.

Expertise with forensic techniques in Excel, banking data exports, and any leading audit software is important, as is prior experience testifying or preparing documentation for potential legal proceedings. Please confirm your availability to start immediately and your ability to handle the engagement under a formal NDA.
