Selecting Cerebra CPAs & Advisors to assist my firm and its clients proved to be one of the wisest decisions we have ever made. My firm was engaged by a global corporation based in the U.S. to conduct a complex fraud investigation involving its acquisition of a local company in Turkey. Shortly after the purchase was completed, the client began to suspect that the seller had engaged in fraudulent practices to significantly inflate the company’s value and profitability. As part of our investigation, my firm engaged Fikret Sebilcioğlu and the Cerebra team to conduct a covert financial review designed to assist the team in proving the existence and full extent of the fraud.

Understanding that time was of the essence, Cerebra experts quickly initiated an around-the-clock financial review that included extensive onsite document examination and personnel interviews. Leaving no stone unturned, Cerebra played a critical role in the investigative team’s confirmation of the seller’s fraudulent and deceptive practices, and helped secure critical evidence and witness testimony that irrefutably proved the seller’s culpability. Aided by Cerebra’s top-notch diligence and extensive forensic fraud expertise, the investigation successfully provided the client with the proof it needed to avoid a massive financial and legal crisis. Fikret and Cerebra truly proved themselves to be highly responsive, innovative and collaborative accounting and financial analysis subject matter experts, and I am honored to offer my highest recommendation for their services.
