Banking

Financial institutions, lenders and other companies in banking services face significant public and regulatory pressures. Their customers expect a high degree of integrity and dedication to managing risk, and that’s what Weaver offers.

As banks grow past $1 billion in assets, audit requirements increase and leaders must consider the effectiveness of their internal controls over financial reporting. There are cybersecurity concerns that threaten the privacy and data protection of financial institutions and their customers. As financial institutions expand with more ATMs and services nationwide, they need to manage tax obligations to benefit from different state or property tax laws. Then as banks enter the world of digital assets, they must consider more controls, new risks and expanded technology assessments.

When financial institutions and other companies in banking services look for ways to mitigate risks, maximize savings and comply with regulations, Weaver clients know where they can turn for help. With a team that has served financial institutions for over 25 years, Weaver understands what it takes to be compliant, build public trust and maintain efficient internal controls.

Weaver understands the practical, day-to-day realities involved in managing banks, credit unions, mortgage companies, finance companies, non-bank lenders and collection agencies. Clients rely on our in-depth industry knowledge and broad skills that extend beyond financial statement audits and tax compliance, ranging from risk assessment, internal audit and IT audit and security assessment services to the more specialized requirements of SOX, FDICIA and other regulatory requirements.
