US GAAP

BDO is your partner for US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP) - from adoption and conversion to interpretation.

US GAAP is mandatory for companies listed and domiciled in the US. Companies listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange that have opted for the SIX standard "International Reporting Standard" can report either in accordance with IFRS or US GAAP.

With many years’ experience on audit and advisory engagements, we're familiar with the issues that can crop up when applying US GAAP. BDO has certified specialists in this area and is registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) in the US.
