How we can help
Accounting and corporate reporting
We help clients resolve difficult accounting and reporting questions.
That may mean reviewing a proposed accounting treatment, challenging a significant judgement or accounting paper, providing an independent accounting opinion or considering how regulatory or legislative change could affect reported financial strength, distributions, financing or board decisions.
Regulation and public policy
We help organisations assess changes in government policy, regulation and reporting requirements.
The work can include understanding what is proposed, identifying the commercial or financial consequences, testing the evidence, considering credible alternatives and helping the client develop its position.
Consultation and evidence support
We can help identify which proposals matter, gather and structure member or stakeholder evidence, assess the technical and commercial implications and develop the analysis behind the client’s response.
Specialist support to other advisers
We work with accountancy firms and other professional advisers where a client matter needs additional specialist input. The role can be tightly defined: technical research, review of an accounting judgement, regulatory analysis, transaction-related accounting or specialist input into a dispute.
Transactions and special situations
Transactions, restructurings and financing decisions can create unusual accounting and reporting questions. We can provide specialist input on those questions alongside the client’s legal, corporate finance, tax and accounting advisers.
Adoption in professional and regulated markets
We can help identify the professional, governance or regulatory questions that may affect adoption; understand what firms and institutions need to become comfortable; and develop evidence, safeguards or pilot approaches accordingly.
Board briefings, training and speaking
We provide focused briefings and training for boards, finance teams, accountancy firms, professional bodies and other senior audiences.
Topics can include public policy, regulatory change, corporate reporting, accounting judgement, audit and assurance, sustainability and change in professional services.
