Account reconciliation is a critical process that ensures the accuracy and completeness of an organization’s financial statements.
It involves verifying and resolving any discrepancies in financial records to ensure the numbers align and provide a reliable view of the company’s financial status. As businesses focus on their core activities, many organizations are opting to outsource account reconciliation to streamline the process.
The benefits of account reconciliation are significant, particularly in safeguarding the accuracy of the company’s balance sheet. By reconciling accounts, companies can detect and address fraudulent or overcharged credit card transactions, prevent cash account overdrafts, identify negative financial activities such as theft or reporting errors, and reduce compliance risk by ensuring accuracy during audits.
Our reconciliation services encompass two approaches:
Document Review: This process involves comparing the documented amounts of each transaction with the corresponding incoming or outgoing amounts in the accounts. It ensures that the recorded transactions align with the actual amounts.
Analytics Review: Analytics review utilizes historical estimates of account activity and compares them to the actual data. Significant deviations between the estimated and actual numbers can highlight potential errors or fraudulent activities that need to be addressed.
