Ketaki Gadre

I am a finance professional with a strong background in audit, risk management, and financial controls. In addition to my professional accomplishments, I have actively contributed to thought leadership in financial reporting. Most relevant, would be an article on Internal Control Financial Reporting, published in 2017 when ICFR was emerging as a critical focus area. I’m passionate about leveraging my technical expertise and problem-solving skills to create robust financial frameworks.

Currently, I work as a Senior Analyst in Business Controls, where I specialize in risk assessments, ICFR development, and enhancing operational efficiency. One of my key achievements has been leading the transition to automated controls, risk assessment and embedding controls in a new cash movement processes, and integrating ICFR controls across various asset classes, which removed redundancy by 40%. Prior to this, I was with Deloitte as an Assistant Manager in Audit & Assurance.

There, I managed statutory audits, internal control testing for SOX compliance, and financial reporting transitions from local GAAP to IFRS. I also played a pivotal role in post-merger due diligence, helping organizations strengthen their control environment. My work has spanned diverse industries, including real estate, technology, manufacturing and financial services, and I’ve been recognized for my contributions with Deloitte's 'Move the Dot – Team' award.

I have a CPA and a Master in Finance from Schulich School of Business, York University. My focus areas are audit, assurance, risk assessment and accounting.
