The United States is receiving full access to inspect and investigate accounting firms in China for the first time, according to the nation’s top auditor.

The U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) said on Dec. 15 that it obtained full access to firms in China after years of refusals by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
