Russell Bedford International, the worldwide network of independent financial audit and consulting firms, has announced the appointment of Nitter og Simensen Asker AS as the group's first Correspondent firm in Norway.
Nitter og Simensen Asker AS is an audit practice (revisjonsselskapet) located close to the Norwegian capital, Oslo.
Nitter og Simensen was created when Halfdan Nitter and Petter Simensen acquired an existing audit practice in 2002. The practice grew with offices in Asker on the west side of the Oslofjord and in Moss on the east side of the fjord. Nitter og Simensen has recently been restructured, with each office becoming a separate company.
The practice in Asker is headed by Halfdan Nitter, a Registered Public Accountant (registrert revisor). Halfdan studied law and psychology as well as accounting. He has some 20 years of professional experience including working as a financial controller in a medium-sized Norwegian company and some 15 years as a manager in mid-market audit firms.
The firm serves about 190 clients, mostly small and medium-sized enterprises. A significant proportion of these are engineering companies. Several client companies have overseas operations in locations such as Denmark, Sweden, UK, Singapore and the USA.
The majority of the firm’s work is in the fields of auditing, tax consulting and management consulting.
Nitter og Simensen Asker AS is able to draw on the resources of other members of ERFA, a technical training and support association comprising ten small audit companies in and around Oslo.

All Russell Bedford affiliates are well-established firms offering international business advice and services to local and multinational clients. Most provide a full range of services comprising accounting, auditing, tax advice, general business guidance and financial consulting. In addition, many have special expertise in particular fields, such as international taxation or information technology.
In January 2008 Russell Bedford International was been named one of the first 17 full members of the IFAC Forum of Firms after reporting it has implemented a globally coordinated quality assurance programme, committed to the use of International Standards on Auditing (ISAs), and met other specific ethics requirements.
