So, as someone who uses a big 4 for both, honestly we have them audit us so that the government doesn’t. They are there to validate that proper controls are in place to avoid an audit from the IRS/SEC. Tbh, avoiding audit, and growing your business are 2 different business lines, and all these companies are so massive that those 2 groups likely have never spoken. Nothing burger ass article
and all these companies are so massive that those 2 groups likely have never spoken
You sure about that.
This article seems to argue that governments don’t need to worry, the ‘big 4’ are already doing a good job not giving in to conflicts of interest in a sort-of-related field so they don’t need additional regulation. I find the argument to be weak and the intent of the article suspicious.
Wasn’t a major company consulting at the same place they audit one of the contributing factors to the Enron collapse?
