The Nigerian audit and assurance industry witnessed a significant surge in revenue in 2024, with KPMG, Ernst & Young (EY), and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PWC) emerging as the top-earning firms for the year.
According to recently compiled data by Nairametrics Research on the top 50 publicly quoted companies, total audit earnings across the leading firms rose to N28.2 billion in 2024, up from N17.1 billion in 2023, representing a 65% year-on-year increase.
In today’s increasingly regulated and transparent corporate environment, the audit function remains a critical pillar of trust and accountability.
