Auditing - What are Reviews

The video tutorial explains the differences between a financial statement audit and a review service provided by auditors. It highlights that a review offers limited assurance compared to an audit, as it involves less test work, primarily through analytical procedures and inquiry. The tutorial also discusses the types of clients who might need a review, such as those seeking loans from banks, where a full audit is not necessary but some level of assurance is required.
