FAQ
How is this different from a standard registry or auditor review?
We operate independently from issuers and registries, applying science-first criteria and fraud-risk analysis that go beyond conformance checks. Our reports are written for executives, auditors, and—if needed—litigation.
Can you align findings with EU disclosure frameworks?
Yes. We map observations to EU Taxonomy, ESRS, and ISSB/SASB where relevant, and indicate disclosure-ready language.
Do you provide expert testimony?
Yes. When disputes arise, our experts can support counsel with reports and testimony under separate engagement terms.
