Membership in BDO will allow Rostov residents, in particular, to provide services to companies planning to enter the international capital market and conduct audits according to international standards, says Khailo. The Rostov company's turnover in 2008 may increase by 30-50%, including due to servicing the Rostov divisions of major BDO clients, such as Yuzhtruboprovodstroy, Rostovneftegazstroy, Ust-Donetsk Port and L'Etoile. Today, the main clients of Center-Audit are clients of Center-Invest Bank.
