MFA serves an important advisory function for public company clients by providing services that improve our clients’ independence, yield cost savings, and bring standby senior level technical expertise to bear on the complex issues they need resolved.
The steady march of regulatory changes for public companies initiated an evolution of accounting, as the call for independence gave rise to a new breed of technical specialist CPA firms. Progressive companies understand that capitalizing on the knowledge base and resources offered by MFA helps them to drive the speed and depth of achievement of their company’s strategic and tactical objectives.
The smart alternative. Some services are required by law to be handled by a firm that is independent of a company’s auditor. While we do perform audit and assurance engagements, for independence-driven needs we offer an alternative to high-priced national firms by acting as a complementary provider of non-audit services.
Senior level technical expertise. MFA puts its best foot forward for all clients, and that means having dedicated senior technical expertise on every engagement – from beginning to end. You won’t find MFA deploying less experienced CPAs to specific sites and rotating high level expertise in and out of project teams. Our partners and managers are deeply involved in client work and are always available to you.
Responsive. Devoting high level resources only helps our clients if we also respond to their needs as they arise and on a timetable that works for them. Whether performing specialized services or liaising with auditors or regulators, our public clients know they can count on us for innovative and exacting execution, quick response and diligent follow-up.
