If you're a regular person, you probably go to a doctor for check-ups when you're well and for a proper diagnosis when you're sick. But what if you're a business owner? Easy—you hire a financial examiner to ensure that your company stays in tip-top financial shape, and to help you get back on track when things go amiss (as they often do). Financial examiners monitor the financial wellbeing of banks and other money-based institutions. They review expenses, prepare reports, sit in on meetings, help leaders understand new laws and innovations that will affect their company's health, and recommend solutions to money-related problems when things go wrong. And, like physicians, they also train new "money doctors" in the art of keeping a company going strong.
