Audit Quality and Transparency

CohnReznick understands the significance of our role in protecting the capital markets and serving our clients. To do so, it is critical that we are transparent to these markets, investors, and regulators. Our ability to act as an impartial, objective, and independent third party is reliant on the trust we have built during our over 100 years in existence. We have forged this trust by providing high-quality audit and assurance services, which have evolved over time.

As part of our commitment, we offer the 2020 edition of CohnReznick’s Audit Quality and Transparency Report. This publication finds us an unprecedented year, amid the widespread hardships and disruptions of the coronavirus pandemic – including the delay of this report, pushed from April as we worked to assist our clients in managing the impact of the economic downturn. As we adapt to these changing times, we are optimistic about things to come and about the continued opportunities we have to better serve our clients and the capital markets sector through quality, innovation, and collaboration. We continue to strive to attract diverse talent, to provide our people with development opportunities, and to help strengthen communities in any way we can.

It is said that trust is built and maintained by many small actions over time. In that spirit, we hope to take another small step in gaining and maintaining our stakeholders’ trust by providing our 2020 Audit Quality and Transparency Report.
