The banking sector is one of the most scrutinized in the world. Stakeholders such as federal regulators, ratings agencies, investors, and analysts create multiple pressures for boards and management.

EisnerAmper helps banking clients respond to immediate concerns and position themselves for strategic growth and profitability. We’ve worked with financial institutions for more than 40 years – from community banks to SEC registrants – and we understand what’s at stake.  

We serve banks, bank trust departments, and independent trust companies with tax, audit, and advisory services. We also work directly with investment advisory businesses. From developing policies and procedures that help growing concerns build foundational capabilities to refining ERM, governance, operational risk frameworks, and process redesign and enhancement for industry leaders; we assist a wide variety of client types.
