At OHCD we take very seriously our responsibility for the handling of confidential client information. Our Privacy Policy addresses this.

"Over the course of the past fifteen years, OHCD has provided me, my businesses and my clients unparalleled professional accounting and financial services. As a corporate finance professional, I often see boutique operations similar to OHCD but none have swayed me to give up the professional, personal, patient and wise counsel that I enjoy with OHCD."

Financial Manager, national charity

"We have found OHCD to be a very efficient and responsive company to work with. They are always there with answers to questions, and are willing to go that extra distance to get us the information we need, as quickly as we need it. We find our audits done on time and in the time period best for us, even if it is their busiest time of year. As a charitable organization we find them well informed about the issues important to our sector. We have been very happy with the service we receive."
