Statements on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE)

Statements on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) are guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) to ensure the credibility and quality of various types of audits and reports. SSAE outlines how accountants should assess and report on the reliability of information provided by organizations, such as financial data or compliance with regulations. These standards help build trust among stakeholders, such as investors and clients, by ensuring that reports are conducted in a consistent and thorough manner, ultimately enhancing transparency and accountability in business practices.
