analytical review or audit review
Explanation:
Depending on the context, there are two meanings to this word in an audit. Firstly, it refers to an audit process almost at the end of an audit assignment at SGV Na-Thalang & Co., CPAs called "Analytical Review". The necessary audit evidences have been gathered, all the working papers including recalculations are done and documented, the final step is to find all the financial ratios measuring risks, performance, stability, in comparison with those of the previous years and with other organisations. This is called Analytical Review. Secondly, going over any calculation, process documentation -- in short, the work done by another person, usually that of a junior accountant or auditor -- in an audit, by a senior auditor, or supervisor, or manager, is also called a review. The work of any accountant who practise under a CPA must be reviewed, if the CPA is worth his salt.

The audit review is not just a review of accounts. It is a review on the trustworthiness of the figures in the accounts. Ergo, it includes reviewing and evaluating the established policies and guidelines, adopted or actual accounting practices, systems of internal controls, etc.
