Understanding the AICPA Independence Rule’s Impact on Your Firm’s Audit Revenue

In 2017, the AICPA ruled that CPA and accounting firms are no longer able to host data and audit financials of the same company, beginning September 1, 2018. CPA and accounting firms are now scrambling to see if they should give up one of these revenue streams or if they should hire an outside vendor to take over their hosting services. Netgain, the leader in specialized CPA hosting and IT-as-a-Service (ITaaS) for CPA firms, has a low-cost alternative for firms that want to keep the revenue streams on both audit and hosting, and would also like to increase their gross margins on their hosting business.

Find out more about this pressing issue and discover the right path for you to keep your revenue streams flowing by downloading this on-demand recording of a recent webinar where we presented on this subject. Either one of these resources will provide needed insight into this new ruling and cover:
