Public Accounting Firms
Public accounting firms are professional organizations that provide accounting, auditing, consulting, and financial advisory services to businesses, governments, and individuals. They help ensure financial statements are accurate and comply with regulations, offering credibility and transparency. These firms also assist with tax planning and compliance, financial audits, and risk management. They serve as independent experts to evaluate financial records, helping stakeholders make informed decisions. Major firms, often called "Big Four," include Deloitte, PwC, EY, and KPMG, and they play a critical role in maintaining trust and integrity in financial reporting and business practices.
