Financial Institution ConsultingIndustry expertise and insights to help your financial institution thrive
Since 1944, our affiliated entities have served a wide range of financial institutions—providing audit services through Saltmarsh CPAs, Inc. and tax and consulting services through Saltmarsh, Cleaveland & Gund. This continues to be our largest specialty practice and industry of focus.
We currently serve over a hundred financial institutions ranging in size from small single location institutions to larger multi-billion-dollar institutions.
The Financial Institution Advisory Group includes an experienced team of shareholders with a passion for serving financial institutions and expertise that has established them as thought-leaders in the industry. Many are asked to present at industry events and attend national conferences, including the Florida Bankers Association, Tennessee Bankers Association and FDIC CPA Roundtables.
Our greatest ambassadors, in addition to satisfied clients, are the consultants who serve our clients on a daily basis. We take care to attract and retain knowledgeable professionals, most of whom have practical experience working in the industry and provide comprehensive training and access to resources to ensure they deliver quality and timely work each and every time.
