TSG has a team of experts devoted to helping State governments ensure equitable compliance. TSG is dedicated to thorough, accurate, and complete identification of unclaimed property retained by the holder. TSG achieves success through a cooperative and professional approach to performing audits with as little intrusion as possible for the holder. TSG offers a team of highly experienced auditors, a unique perspective, and a proprietary statistical analysis to provide superior auditing services to its customers.
TSG is the only existing Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) unclaimed property auditing firm, and has a distinct approach that differentiates it from the rest of the industry:
- Respect – Holders are constituents and should be treated with respect. While we take compliance seriously, TSG takes a politically sensitive approach to holder relations.
- Customized Solution – One size doesn’t fit all, and no state should be faced with a “take it or leave it” approach to multi-state audits. TSG creates customized audit packages for each customer, and tailors its services to the wishes of each State, regardless of its size.
- Comprehensive – Founded and led by a former State Treasurer and a former UP Administrator, TSG understands that States need assistance with their ongoing compliance efforts. Unlike its competitors, TSG doesn’t solely audit major national holders. TSG can also provide a complete audit program focusing on in-state and regional holders. Cost efficiency allows for reviews of holders typically deemed too small.
We employ a strategy that encourages cooperation and a swift process:
- Be honest and straightforward about the audit’s focus, scope, and intentions.
- Encourage holder participation in field work and the review of data.
- Request records and establish a timeline well in advance.
- Identify disputable issues and property types well in advance.
- Relay the fact that States are more willing to consider waiving penalties and interest for cooperative holders.
