💱 Simplifying Multi-Currency Consolidation
As the Group FD or CFO you may be faced with preparing consolidated forecasts with multiple currencies. This could be the stuff of nightmares for the Finance Team.
For instance, the Group may present its financial statements in US dollars, but have a number of subsidiaries having a range of functional currencies, some in GB£, others in Euros, others, for instance, reporting in Brazilian Reals.
As a consequence of the spread of reporting currencies, it will (probably) make sense for each subsidiary to prepare its own forecast in its own functional currency. Individually, those forecasts can be translated into the group reporting currency at the currency ruling at the time of preparation..
🔄 Effortless Currency Conversion
