Item 4.01. | Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant. |
(a) Dismissal of independent registered public accounting firm
On June 25, 2020 the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Credit Suisse Asset Management Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”), approved the dismissal of KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Fund. The Board’s decision to approve the dismissal of KPMG was recommended by the Audit Committee of the Board.
The reports of KPMG on the Fund’s financial statements as of and for the two most recent fiscal years (ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018) did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainties, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Fund’s two most recent fiscal years (ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018) and during the period from the end of the most recently completed fiscal year through June 25, 2020, there were no disagreements between the Fund and KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in their report on the financial statements of the Fund for such periods.
During the Fund’s two most recent fiscal years (ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018) and during the period from the end of the most recently completed fiscal year through June 25, 2020, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of RegulationS-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)).
The Fund has provided KPMG with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and has requested that KPMG furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Fund set forth above. A copy of KPMG’s letter dated June 26, 2020 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form8-K.
(b) Engagement of new independent registered public accounting firm
Upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board approved the engagement of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Fund for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. During the Fund’s two most recent fiscal years (ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018) and during the period from the end of the most recently completed fiscal year through the date of this Form8-K, neither the Fund, nor anyone on its behalf consulted with PwC, on behalf of the Fund, regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction (either
