McGladrey & Pullen, LLP has worked with the other members of the public company auditing profession and the American Institute of CPAs to create a public policy and information forum to help serve investors, public company auditors and the markets. The Center for Audit Quality is an autonomous, nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that aims to become an expert resource and catalyst for public education and discussion on public company auditing. Membership is open to all U.S. CPA firms that are registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.
The Center for Audit Quality’s mission is to make the audit process more reliable and useful for investors in this time of growing financial complexity and market globalization. The Center for Audit Quality represents the first time that public company auditors, as a group, have joined with public leaders in the investor and corporate communities to discuss the issues facing the capital markets, conduct research on these topics and ultimately make recommendations that will foster confidence in the capital markets. All stakeholders have an interest in how the public company auditing profession adapts to a changing reality, and our unique perspective on these changes creates an obligation to lead the dialogue on how to meet them.
The Center for Audit Quality is led by a Governing Board representing the public company auditing profession and the investor and issuer communities. McGladrey & Pullen, LLP is represented by David Scudder, the Firm’s managing partner.
