Management reporting

Gain visibility into the financial health of local divisions operating in Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the Caucasus. We transform reporting prepared under local accounting standards into manage-ment reports under IFRS, US GAAP, German GAAP (HGB) and/or head office corporate require-ments.

Head office needs regular financial reports from local subsidiaries, but these reports are generally prepared according to local rather than international accounting standards. This makes reports difficult to comprehend and integrate into consolidated corporate reporting. Even though local subsidiaries may be legally required to prepare IFRS reporting, they sometimes lack the necessary in-house expertise.

SCHNEIDER GROUP consultants will check accounting reporting according to local standards, analyse head office corporate requirements and generate a set of management reports to ensure that subsidiaries' activities are transparent to shareholders and decision-makers abroad. We will:

  • Prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual management reporting for headquarters according to your preferred international standards (such as IFRS, US GAAP or HGB).
  • Provide reconciliation and mapping between local data and management reporting.
  • Transfer local reporting data to your corporate chart of accounts.

What is included in SCHNEIDER GROUP’s management reporting services?

  • Preparation of weekly and monthly aging reports, reports on cashflows, stocks, revenues, orders, gross profit (monetary or quantitative) by counterparty and/or sales.
  • Preparation of weekly and monthly cashflow forecasts/budgets.
  • Preparation of monthly management reports (Statement of Financial Position and Income Statement) according to IFRS, US GAAP or HGB.
  • Preparation of necessary disclosures or notes related to balance sheet and profit & loss items and/or their detailed breakdowns.
  • Transfer of local reporting data to corporate financial accounts; consultation on preparing Russian Accounting Standards (RAS) reports; ensuring that reporting from Russian subsidiaries is transparent and understandable for head office.
  • Budgeting: from budgeting support and consultation for in-house staff to full preparation of short-term (1-year) and long-term (5-year) budgets.
  • Quarterly update/adjustment of budget data.
  • Reconciliation of management reporting data with annual financial statements and annual profit tax returns prepared under RAS standards; identification of inconsistencies; commentary on differences.
  • Preparation of annual and quarterly tax balance sheets (providing breakdowns of expenditure and income, both deductible & non-deductible for the purpose of profit tax calculation).
    • Preparation of other management reports at your request.

Reporting is available in either Russian, English or German.

We integrate local accounting systems with the solution used by head office to exchange data in real time. We set up automatic generation and distribution of reports with information you require, such as warehouse stock, invoiced amounts, accounts receivable etc.
ACCESS TO SOURCE DATA
In addition to final reports, we provide working files to monitor all adjustments, from the local trial balance to the financial information stated in the report. We simplify data verification for head office, thus saving time spent clarifying details with local divisions.
