Swift Accountants
Listening, Understanding, Advising
Fixed-fee auditing services support for UK businesses — audit planning, audit-ready accounts, reconciliations, schedules, evidence packs, and auditor liaison — with a dedicated accountant and a secure client portal.
Fixed fees — clear inclusions, no surprises Audit-ready records — tidy evidence, consistent numbers Deadlines kept under control — so audits don’t become a panic project
Audits can feel intense — tight deadlines, detailed questions, and the pressure of “getting it right” while still running the business. Most audit stress comes from one thing: records that aren’t fully audit-ready when the requests start landing.
At Swift, we make the process calmer and more controlled. We prepare clean accounts, build the schedules auditors ask for, reconcile the numbers, organise supporting evidence, and manage the workflow so you’re never scrambling at the last minute.
Important note (for clarity): statutory audits are regulated in the UK and audit reports must be signed by a Registered Auditor. If you require a statutory audit, we can support the preparation and work alongside your appointed auditor to keep the process smooth and efficient.
We go further, respond faster, and work harder for you. Join hundreds of UK businesses who trust us with their finances — and discover how simple and controlled an audit can feel when it’s handled properly.

(Fast UK Guidance)
Many private limited companies qualify for audit exemption, but audits may still be required in certain situations. In plain English:
You may need an audit if:
– your shareholders request one
– your articles of association require one
– you’re not eligible for exemption due to company type or activities
– you’re part of a group or subsidiary situation where exemption doesn’t apply
– you choose an audit for lender/investor confidence
If you’re unsure, we’ll confirm what applies quickly and explain it clearly.

No pressure — just clear answers and the next best step.
With Swift Accountants, you’re not just planning for success — you’re building it with clarity, control and confidence.
Tailored Plans to Maximise Your Profits and Protect Your Business
For financial years that begin on or after 6 April 2025, a private limited company may qualify for audit exemption if it meets at least 2 of the following:
– turnover no more than £15 million
– balance sheet total (assets) no more than £7.5 million
– 50 or fewer employees on average
For earlier periods, the thresholds were lower (turnover £10.2m, assets £5.1m, 50 employees). If you’re not sure which year rules apply to you, we’ll confirm it.
(If You’re Using Exemption)
If you’re claiming audit exemption, Companies House guidance requires an exemption statement on the balance sheet. We’ll insert the correct wording and ensure it matches the relevant Companies Act requirements.
Stay Ahead of the Curve
Audit expectations and reporting requirements don’t stand still — and small gaps in records can become big questions during an audit. We keep your records consistent, evidence-based, and audit-ready so you stay compliant and reduce the risk of painful follow-up.
You’ll get:
Deadline reminders + proactive chasing
Plain-English guidance (no jargon)
A tidy process that keeps records consistent year-round
(Don’t Miss Out)
Most audit issues aren’t “big fraud problems” — they’re small, avoidable gaps: missing evidence, inconsistent reconciliations, unclear explanations, or bookkeeping that doesn’t tie out cleanly.
We keep things calm with tidy records, clean schedules, and proactive check-ins so your audit feels controlled, not chaotic. If you’re switching from another accountant (or moving from spreadsheets/DIY software), we’ll handle the handover end-to-end and make sure nothing gets dropped.
Customised Audit Support Strategy
No generic advice — just a routine built around how your business actually operates and what auditors typically need.
We’ll help you:
– build an audit-ready record-keeping routine that actually sticks
– keep reconciliations clean (so the numbers match reality)
– prepare clear schedules and evidence packs (so requests are easy to answer)
– reduce audit questions with better structure and consistency
– improve controls and documentation where needed (so future audits are easier)
You’ll have a dedicated accountant who explains things clearly and keeps you one step ahead — month after month.
