CPA Peer Review – Los Angeles (CA)

AICPA Peer Review – Los Angeles (CA)

Los Angeles and California CPA firms are required to undergo a firm peer review every three years – a requirement mandated by both the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and state licensing agencies.

A peer review is an independent examination of a firm’s accounting and auditing practices by another CPA firm. The purpose is to build client confidence, enhance professional development, identify and mitigate risks, and to satisfy compliance requirements. The reviewer examines ethical requirements, human resources, client acceptance procedures and engagement performance and monitoring. Since the results of peer reviews are publicly available, working with an experienced provider who will carefully examine operations is critical.

About the Los Angeles Business Community

The Los Angeles business community is one of the most dynamic and diverse in the United States, reflecting the city’s role as both a global economic hub and a center of cultural innovation. Anchored by major industries such as entertainment, technology, manufacturing, international trade, and professional services, the city’s economy thrives on creativity, multicultural collaboration, and constant reinvention. Los Angeles is home to the entertainment capital of the world, with Hollywood and surrounding areas driving billions in film, television, and streaming production, along with emerging segments like gaming and digital media. The technology sector, centered in “Silicon Beach” neighborhoods such as Santa Monica, Playa Vista, and Venice, continues to grow rapidly, attracting startups, venture capital, and global firms in artificial intelligence, clean tech, and e-commerce.

Beyond entertainment and tech, the city maintains a strong foundation in traditional industries like aerospace, logistics, and manufacturing. The ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach together form one of the largest seaports in the world, serving as a gateway for international trade with Asia and supporting thousands of local businesses in shipping, customs, and supply chain management. Aerospace and defense companies maintain a strong presence throughout the greater Los Angeles area, reflecting the region’s long-standing role in aviation innovation and national defense contracting. Meanwhile, small and midsized manufacturers continue to thrive in sectors such as apparel, furniture, and electronics, often blending design with advanced production methods.
