Le client affirme que « ‘factual clearance’ means ensuring that all facts contained in the auditor’s report are accurate, » donc il s'agit selon moi du terme approprié.

agree  B D Finch: That would be "clarification of the facts" in English, which is what I think the writer meant. But "factual clearance" sounds so much more (self-) important.

  -> Thanks!

disagree  Germaine: Ce n'est pas "to clarify" and it's not about "sounding...more important". C'est "to clear" dans le sens de valider, de donner son accord à publication/diffusion.
