Systems and methods for obtaining accountant prepared financial statement confirmation

摘要

Systems and methods are provided for obtaining verified financial statements associated with a client. An accountant provides or approves financial statements associated with a client to a confirmation system via a communications network. The client provides permissions for the financial statements to the confirmation system via the communications network and identifies at least one lending institution. The confirmation system queries the database of licensed certified public accountants to determine whether the accountant is currently licensed as a certified public accountant. The confirmation system provides the financial statements to the lending institution or financial statement user upon determining that the accountant is a certified public accountant and confirming the financial information in the financial statements.
