Dr. Barry Jay Epstein, an internationally-recognized accounting and auditing expert, and Ralph Nach, an accomplished consultant, speaker, author, instructional designer, and facilitator of the well-known Accounting and Auditing Clinic professional education program, announce the formation of a new business enterprise, Epstein + Nach LLC (http://www.epsteinnach.com).
The newly-launched international consulting firm provides forensic accounting expertise and services in the areas of financial reporting, white collar crime, auditor liability, and the interpretation of domestic and international accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards.
In their capacities as practicing auditors, authors, educators, and forensic accountants, the two founding principals offer a distinctive blend of knowledge and experience that enables them to effectively communicate and educate in client engagements, in courtrooms, or in classrooms.
According to Dr. Barry Jay Epstein, the partnership will bring an enhanced level of proficiency to the firm’s clients—including accounting firms, plaintiff and defense securities attorneys, and federal and state regulatory agencies—who seek clarity and technical knowledge in a litigation dispute or learning environment.
“Epstein + Nach is exceptionally well-equipped to skillfully communicate technical knowledge and educate our clients in complex financial and accounting matters,” Dr. Epstein said. “I am fortunate to have the opportunity to join forces with Ralph Nach, who has served the accounting profession for more than 35 years and created a curriculum of engaging, interactive continuing education programs that has attracted a loyal, national following in the public accounting profession.”
Principal Ralph Nach noted that, “Barry Epstein is a widely-recognized authority on highly-relevant complex issues in accounting, auditing and assurance, ethics and integrated reporting. I look forward to working more closely with my respected colleague and co-author.”
