Public companies which are listed on the US stock exchange are required to include in their annual reports an assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting as governed under Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX 404”). In addition, the auditors of these public companies are also required to report on the effectiveness of such internal controls.

With our experienced and skilled people and the networking with other BDO global offices, we are able to assist the management of foreign subsidiaries and affiliates of US public companies in reviewing their internal control assertions over financial reporting.

Alternatively, we are also able to audit the effectiveness of the said internal controls and report on the effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting to the auditors of the ultimate holding companies in the US.
