Bus/Financial - Accounting / General

Danish term or phrase: hvervgiver

The document is a Letter of Engagement for a firm of auditors. I know the term 'hvervgiver' applies to the company/person whose accounts are being audited but can't think of a suitable English term.

Loven kræver, at vi er offentlighedens tillidsrepræsentant i forbindelse med afgivelse af erklæringer, der kræves i henhold til lovgivningen eller ikke udelukkende er bestemt til hvervgivers eget brug.

Thanks in advance for any help.

English translation:client

Explanation:
The letter reads as if it is from the auditors to the company that is being audited. In this case, the auditors would regard the company as their "client" rather then their employer.

See reference.
