Reverse Mergers: Forensic Accounting and Financial Investigations At A Glance
Capabilities and Services
When a foreign private company goes public by a reverse merger, there are myriad accounting, auditing, financial, and economic issues. With the increasing number of reverse mergers that have occurred in recent years, now more than ever, counsel involved in legal proceedings will need expertise that spans many functional business disciplines. Many NERA experts possess cross-functional skills that can provide valuable input and advice with regard to the issues in each case.
Because much of the litigation relates to the integrity of legacy accounting data and auditing procedures prior to becoming public entities, there is likely to be a heightened need for experts that have a deep understanding of accounting and auditing standards and that have excellent investigative skills. NERA’s forensic accounting experts combine deep experience in financial reporting systems, methodologies, and disclosure requirements with statistical and econometric expertise to identify patterns, trends, and concerns in the interpretation of reported data. Our experts have deep experience with regard to regulatory compliance for publicly-traded companies.
