Accounting and Computer Forensics are invaluable tools when it comes to knowing and maintaining integrity around the transactions that drive business - and business decisions, particularly in foreign affiliates. STEELE's financial team knows how to analyze accounting policies against best practices, trace the history of complex transactions, deploy forensic computer data discovery and assess signs of fiscal malfeasance. Our capability also extends to knowledge of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and best practices both for establishing compliance programs and investigating any irregularities. STEELE's worldwide network combines technology and expert field staff with local know-how and immediately accessible resources in key business markets globally. STEELE combines investigative, technical and industry resources to investigate a range of financial matters, including alleged financial and accounting irregularities affecting numerous statutes and regulations, often requiring financial restatements. Our forensic investigation teams are able to rapidly and thoroughly respond to suspected fraud, irregularities and workplace incidents. We are well versed in the procedures, responsibilities, and duties added by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; recent rules and regulations of the SEC, NYSE, NASD, and PCAOB; and the latest developments in the law governing corporate fiduciary duties. Our investigations often assist Boards of Directors, independent directors, Audit Committees, internal audit, counsel, and management in evaluating allegations of wrongdoing involving management or employees. STEELE conducts these investigations on a time and expense basis globally. |
