Fair value measurements can play a significant role in financial statements and are often scrutinized by a company’s auditor and its regulators. As specialists, our professionals routinely support our Audit practice to assess financial reporting valuations performed on behalf of KPMG audit clients. As a result, we have a deep understanding of auditor and regulator expectations and documentation requirements for fair value measurements. We have an appreciation for the risks involved and take a careful approach to our valuation engagements in order to provide deliverables that meet our clients’ financial reporting requirements. To maintain a high level of quality in performing and auditing financial reporting valuations, we have established a dedicated team of valuation professionals in the KPMG Department of Professional Practice.
