Une telle vérification n'est normalement démandée qu'à la suite de plaintes sérieuses alléguant des actes frauduleux ou répréhensibles, ou encore après qu'une vérification de conformité a révélé des circonstances indiquant un risque réel qu'il y a eu des agissements irréguliers. 5, record 1, French, - audit%20juricomptable
