Statement of Independent Auditor Status & Conflict-Free Assurance

Wildfire Group Risk Advisory operates as a strictly independent, third-party assurance firm. To ensure the integrity of our audits and comply with the regulatory requirements of NYC Local Law 144 and the EU AI Act, we adhere to the following mandates:

• Zero-Vendor Affiliation: Wildfire does not develop, resell, or receive commissions from any Automated Employment Decision Tools (AEDTs) or HR technology platforms.

• Audit Independence: We do not provide "Independent Audits" for any system we helped design or implement.

• Multi-Disciplinary Verification: Every audit is cross-verified by our internal pod—comprising legal counsel, cybersecurity analysts, and AI engineers—ensuring a "human-in-the-loop" assessment that automated software tools cannot replicate.

• Objective Fiduciary Duty: Our primary obligation is to the legal and operational defensibility of the employer. We provide unbiased, evidence-based reports that stand up to regulatory scrutiny.
