Finding REL-4.9
Primary record The Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability, founded in 1979, accredits more than 2,700 member churches and ministries that join voluntarily, affirm an evangelical Christian statement of faith and have an independent CPA audit, review or compile their financial statements, and it states that it is not an auditor. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has a voluntary diocesan financial reporting resolution under which each suffragan bishop sends his metropolitan archbishop a letter stating that his finance council reviewed audited statements.
