(AFM) audit permit for CROP

CROP chartered accountants hold a permit granted by the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM) for the execution of statutory audits. This means that CROP is competent to carry out all statutory audit inspections. The permit serves as a guarantee for the clients that the services of CROP meet the highest quality requirements. Since October 2006, statutory audits at large and medium-sized companies may only be carried out by accountancy offices that are in the possession of an official AFM audit permit.
