Chief Financial Officers (CFO) today go beyond reporting and compliance oversight. The role of CFOs has evolved into a more strategic role to drive operational gains and provide insights to the company’s growth plans. However, many SMEs and start-ups do not have the resources for a full-time CFO. Our virtual CFO service would fill the gap by providing a part-time CFO at a reasonable fee to support businesses in the following areas:
For many businesses, it is common to take on administrative tasks that are outside of your scope of work and that include accounting. A limited level of financial knowledge and shortage of qualified talents within the firm may inhibit the quality of the accounts and accuracy of the financial reporting of your company. Especially if you are experiencing rapid growth and expansion phase, it can be difficult to keep up with changing accounting landscape and increasingly complex accounting standards that come with running a business in Singapore.
During such cases, it will then make sense to deploy accounting advisory services to assist you with the digitalisation of finance and accounting functions, implementation of new accounting standards or interpretation of potential accounting issues, for instance. You can also partner with a virtual CFO to get the financial guidance you need without incurring the cost of a full-time employee. Or if you are a group of companies consisting of a parent company and subsidiaries, consider leveraging our accounts consolidation services to improve transparency and simplify compliance with regulatory requirements.
A group refers to an entity (parent) and the other entities that it controls (subsidiaries). Accounts consolidation services can combine the assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent and its subsidiaries and present the numbers as those of a single economic entity. Consolidation procedures involve eliminating the parent’s investment in each subsidiary (in the parent’s separate financial statements) against the parent’s portion of equity of each subsidiary (in the subsidiary’s standalone financial statements), as well as the intragroup balances and transactions.
The parent is required to prepare consolidated financial statements in accordance with FRS, except if it meets all following conditions:-
(i) it is a wholly-owned subsidiary or is a partially-owned subsidiary of another entity and all its other owners, including those not otherwise entitled to vote, have been informed about, and do not object to, the parent not presenting consolidated financial statements;
(ii) its debt or equity instruments are not traded in a public market (a domestic or foreign stock exchange or an over-the-counter market, including local and regional markets);
(iii) it did not file, nor is it in the process of filing, its financial statements with a securities commission or other regulatory organisation for the purpose of issuing any class of instruments in a public market; and
(iv) its ultimate or any intermediate parent produces financial statements that are available for public use, in which subsidiaries are consolidated or are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
If you are a parent company, accounts consolidation services may be a good option to consider. Consult with Chartsworth’s Accounting Advisory experts to explore how accounts consolidation can empower your business.
