Sarbanes-Oxley

The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act dramatically changed the financial reporting landscape. 

Since then, BDO has helped our clients come up with innovative ways to generate value while maintaining compliance. Far from simply meeting the minimum standard, we help clients improve their internal control over financial reporting processes and create synergies across their entire organization. 

BDO’s Risk Advisory professionals have years of experience educating clients on the best ways to design systems that will not only meet compliance but improve business processes. 

We know meeting complex Sarbanes-Oxley (“SOX”) requirements can be overwhelming. Our professionals help guide companies in a way that draws from our deep experience in a variety of industries. BDO helps many clients, including large public companies, those preparing for an initial public offering, and private companies that wish to establish rigorous SOX-like internal controls. We never stop thinking about what future issues might arise, and thus create systems to monitor the effectiveness of internal controls, identify deficiencies and provide guidance on how to adjust the compliance process to meet current requirements. We also assist clients with J-SOX and other regulatory requirements. 

Our professionals recognize the cost of maintaining compliance and make every effort to help companies establish a model that works best for them by allocating resources appropriately. We leverage the resources of our expansive international network to serve clients wherever they do business, and wherever they have needs. 

BDO takes a forward-thinking, collaborative approach to: 

• 404a v. 404b 
• Fundamental assurance 
• Hot topics 
• Curtailing restatement risk 
• And more
