Helping you overcome the complexities of your industry

Between economic uncertainty, volatile financial markets and regulatory overhaul, it is imperative for broker-dealers to identify professional service providers who will prepare them to respond and adapt to a challenging environment.

As a Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) registered firm, DHG meets the SEC, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and National Futures Association (NFA) requirements to serve as your annual external auditor. We also provide tax, regulatory and advisory services relating to internal controls, operations and compliance to help you meet your business objectives.

DHG's professionals remain ahead of the constantly changing regulatory climate to help you ensure compliance with your brokerage operations and financial reporting requirements. Given the stringent independence requirements in place, our advisory professionals can also consult with you for services not allowed to be performed by your external auditor. We provide assurance, tax and advisory services to broker-dealers of all types, including retail brokers and investment advisors.
