SEC Advisory
Your Second Source Team
New accounting standards and financial reporting requirements continue to grow in number and complexity, while in-house finance/accounting departments are not. What’s more, Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX 404) independence standards prohibit a company’s auditors from performing many of these necessary services to their clients.
A “second source” CPA firm with significant SEC experience can supplement in-house staff and work with a company’s management and its auditors to manage the overall process and stay on top of accounting standards, industry regulations and financial reporting requirements. Our partners and senior management team have significant Big 4 experience, including working with close to 100 publicly traded and pre-emergent companies.
We provide the quality, full-service support you need at a reasonable cost. As an area leader in SEC advisory services, our team works with more than a dozen publicly traded and pre-emergent companies
- Accounting research solutions including writing/reviewing accounting policies and technical research memos to support the company’s position
- Assistance with the adoption of new accounting standards including resolving implementation issues
