Treasury Assurance

Transitioning from an operational function to a valued partner in driving strategic decisions

In today's ever-changing business environment, the Treasury function plays a pivotal role in managing financial risk and driving business strategy. From complex market conditions to increasingly stringent regulatory and reporting requirements, Treasurers are managing a greater number of risks and uncertainties than ever before.

What we do and how we can help:

We work with the CFO and Treasurer to navigate a wide range of accounting, reporting and corporate governance challenges across the treasury lifecycle. We have a team of financial instruments specialists who have vast experience providing support to both financial institutions and corporate clients across a range of industries. Our extensive portfolio of clients means we have experience in a broad range of treasury issues against the backdrop of an ever-changing macroeconomic environment.

  • Transaction support: To support companies going through complex, structured, unique or non-routine transactions, our team of experts provide technical accounting advice, for example on debt and derivative issuances or refinancing exercises. We help companies be audit ready by preparing in-house documentation or through formal accounting opinions.
  • Hedge accounting: We provide valuation and accounting advice in relation to the designation and practical implementation of micro and macro hedge accounting strategies, including hedge documentation and investigation of failed hedges.
  • New standard implementation and transition/conversion support: Whether you require support with assessing the impact of adopting new reporting frameworks (such as switching from FRS 102 to IFRS), changing accounting policies, or implementing new accounting standards such as IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, we can help.
  • Market insights: We have a record of supporting companies to navigate the IFRS consequences of market changes such as sustainable finance, IBOR reform including implications for hedge accounting and other complex financial instrument accounting matters through workshops, roundtable discussions and benchmarking.
  • Treasury policies and processes: We support Treasurers in assessing, developing and implementing efficient and effective treasury policies and processes aligned to their risk management strategy across all aspects of the treasury lifecycle.
  • Internal audit: We provide treasury subject matter expertise on internal audit reviews including SOX requirements, gap analysis, and assisting in developing and enhancing the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of controls
  • Navigating challenges: Whether your company needs support with IPO readiness from a control environment perspective, benchmarking reviews, treasury management system implementation reviews, and controls remediation, our team is here to help.

Our team can help you to navigate market instability and volatility, whilst also putting in place the structures required to drive business strategy and decision-making.
