PARIS, Aug 14 (Reuters) - El Salvador-based Tether, which issues the world's largest stablecoin, said ‌KPMG U.S. had performed a "full independent audit" of ‌its financial statements for the first time.

The audit, which was not ​made public, marks a move by Tether to reassure markets about its finances following heightened global scrutiny of crypto companies.

Tether has for years said that it would seek ‌an audit.

• Tether's ⁠chief financial officer said audited financial statements for 2025 show its reserves exceeded its ⁠liabilities by $6.8 billion.

• A spokesperson for KPMG U.S. said: "We can confirm that we issued an unqualified opinion on Tether ​International, S.A. ​de C.V.'s financial statements ​in accordance with AICPA ‌standards for the year ending December 31, 2025. Due to client confidentiality, we have no further comment."

• "The audit complements Tether's existing quarterly reserve reporting, examining the transactions, systems, ownership records, valuations, counterparties, and underlying evidence supporting ‌the Company's financial statements," Tether ​said.

• Tether said KPMG physically counted ​every gold bar ​it held.

• Tether's website says it has ‌issued around $183 billion in crypto ​tokens pegged ​to the dollar. Tether says it holds dollar-denominated assets, including U.S. Treasuries, to match the number of ​tokens in circulation.

• ‌Tether has previously published "attestations" by BDO Italia on ​the size of its reserves.
