Annex IV and FATCA reporting
Regulatory reporting is an ever-evolving area that can demand a lot from businesses to comply, particularly from those who are new to the regulated environment.
Depending on your unique reporting needs, we offer high-level to detailed reporting and compliance services, streamlining our operations using technologies that make your required information readily accessible via our secure portal.
Our accounting teams have extensive knowledge of local tax and accounting standards - including IFRS / IAS, US GAAP, UK GAAP, and any other GAAP - and of accounts conversions and consolidations.
We also have expertise in navigating the complexity of Annex IV reporting, especially for firms that market across multiple jurisdictions throughout the EEA which requires submission of different reports to each relevant member country.
