In the course of the research, the scientific literature was analyzed in terms of historical aspects of audit development. The analysis of scientific papers shows that there is no unified approach to audit periodization; this situation has developed due to a combination of objective reasons: the theory underlying the research, the object of research, methods and objectives of the research. Our research was based on the study of historical aspects of business audit in the following order: the origins of audit as an institution of financial control; the formation and evolution of audit in Ukraine (as part of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union); the emergence of audit and the development of audit in its modern sense; modern trends in audit in the world.
