Calvin Edwards & Company is currently conducting a pilot test of a revised business model. This website does not fully reflect the changed strategy.

Also, click here for a detailed explanation of our former policy on client engagement, professional independence, and avoiding conflicts of interest. If the new business model prevails, this policy will be revised. Feel free to contact the CEC office on these matters.
