The United States enacted a new law requiring U.S. and foreign companies listed on the Stock Exchange to guarantee that the financial information published is reliable and trustworthy.
Among other things, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act sets forth the Chief Executive Officer´s and the Chief Financial Officer´s obligations to provide written certification that their company´s internal controls are effective.
Further, it establishes that an auditing firm must verify and support the information provided by General Management and the Chief Financial Officer through internal control evaluations.
In order to verify the requirements of this Act, specially trained and experienced BDO personnel perform special reviews that take into account in our reports and certification compliance with this Act.
