What are the benefits of involve Consolidation and Reporting Services?
Skills related to the consolidation of financial statements are quite unique, and such services require very specific expertise. Due to the continuous development of the economy and technology, along with related regulatory changes, consolidation experts must constantly monitor applicable regulations and their updates to apply them appropriately in the companies they serve. Given the shortage of specialists in this filed in the market, instead of investing in employing and continuously developing your own experts, we recommend cooperation – either permanent or occasional – with Grant Thornton team.
Our strengths lie in deep knowledge and years of professional experience in preparing individual and consolidated financial reports for many companies from various industries – completely, reliably and on time. This allows our clients to gain confidence in meeting their reporting deadlines and obtaining a reliable picture of financial data presented in reports presenting to stakeholders.

When is it worth using the Consolidation and Reporting Service?
We mainly cooperate with companies, for which the accumulation of reporting deadlines poses a great challenge and who want to be sure of the quality of the financial data presented. We understand that interim data and annual consolidated reports published on the stock exchange are the main source of information for investors, hence the need for reliable data presentation. We also work with companies that either struggle to find consolidation reporting experts or face temporary staffing challenges (e.g., the head of the consolidation department has left, or the team lacks specific competencies). Additionally, we support international companies that are obliged to consolidate for group purposes, even though they are not legally required to do so.
