Attestation Report

An attestation report is a written statement by an independent third party (such as a CPA or an auditor) that expresses an opinion on the reliability and accuracy of an organization’s financial statements or other information. An attestation report is used to assure stakeholders (such as shareholders, creditors, and regulators) that the information being presented is accurate and can be relied upon.

There are several types of attestation reports that may be prepared depending on the purpose of the report and the information being attested.

Attestation reports are typically used in conjunction with financial statements to provide additional assurance to stakeholders about the accuracy and reliability of the information being presented.
