The corporate governance provides a way to the organization for directing as
well as controlling their institutional structures, accounts, and ethics. It
concentrates on promoting the fairness and transparency within the firm by
controlling performance as well as allocating the responsibility. With respect to
this, an auditor works as the primary protector of corporate governance in the
company. It is illustrated that the auditors of the organization could protect
shareholders interest. It is possible because the auditors could report improving
the performance of the organization (Sundarasen, Je-Yenand Rajangam, 2016).
It is illustrated that the external auditors could support the organization to
improve its financial condition by maintaining the record of all financial activities
in the organization. It is addressed that the auditors of the organization could get
accurate as well as reliable data towards the research matter. The board of
directors could make an evaluation of accounting principles for operating the
business acts and make a decision effectively. It is founded that the auditors
might support to introduce the measures as well as policies designed to
increase the responsibility of the firm (Rao and Tilt, 2016).
