PricewaterhouseCoopers Announces Incorporation and Name of New Accounting Firm in Japan

PricewaterhouseCoopersのサイトより、あらた監査法人（英文名　PricewaterhouseCoopers Aarata）設立に関するプレスリリース。

あらた監査法人は、２００６年７月１日から営業を開始します。年末には約８０名のパートナーを擁するようになる予定であり、その後３年間で相当の成長を見込んでいます。あらた監査法人は、金融庁の中央青山監査法人への処分を厳粛に受け止め、処分の内容と意図を尊重します。

PricewaterhouseCoopers Aarata will be open for business from 1st July 2006. It is expected that by the end of the year it will have grown to have approximately 80 partners and will then grow substantially over the next three years. PricewaterhouseCoopers Aarata takes the sanctions passed on ChuoAoyama by the Financial Services Agency (FSA) of Japan very seriously and will fully respect both the requirements and intent of these sanctions.

あらた監査法人は、国内型企業と国際的企業の両方に対してサービスを提供しますが、少なくとも当初は、海外展開している日本の企業、海外で上場している日本企業、及び、海外の多国籍企業の日本子会社に重点を置くことを想定しています。

PricewaterhouseCoopers Aarata will service both domestic and international companies in Japan however it is anticipated that at least initially the firm will primarily focus on Japanese multinational companies, Japanese companies listed on exchanges outside Japan and companies which are Japanese subsidiaries of major international multinationals.

以下ＰｗＣのＣＥＯによるコメントです。あらた監査法人の設立をサポートすると同時に、中央青山の改革プログラムに関して協力を継続することが最善の方法であるといっています。

“I am delighted to announce the incorporation of what will be the newest member firm of the PricewaterhouseCoopers network” said Sam DiPiazza CEO PricewaterhouseCoopers International. “We face a number of significant challenges in Japan but I am confident that the strategy that we have developed, supporting the establishment of PricewaterhouseCoopers Aarata and continuing to work with ChuoAoyama on its reform programme, will be the best way of improving audit quality and serving all of our clients both internationally and in Japan.”

“We are dedicating a substantial amount of time and effort to working with PricewaterhouseCoopers Aarata to put in place best international practices for audit quality and risk management and will continue to work closely with the management team of PricewaterhouseCoopers Aarata as the business grows and develops in the coming months and years.”
