Our freelance consolidation specialists handle the complete preparation and quality assurance of consolidated and sub-group financial statements in accordance with the German Commercial Code (HGB) and IFRS. They are responsible for equity consolidation, debt consolidation, and the elimination of intercompany transactions, and deliver audit-ready financial statements, including notes and the management report. For companies, this means reliable figures, reduced audit risk, and reporting that supports decision-making.
Typical scenarios for engaging our services include year-end closing peaks when internal capacity is insufficient, transition projects to IFRS or new consolidation software, as well as M&A situations in which newly acquired companies must be included in the consolidated group for the first time. The sooner you bring in an experienced specialist, the lower the risk of errors in the initial consolidation or delays in the financial statement preparation process.
