The ever-evolving regulatory environment poses a number of challenges for both the preparers and the users of financial reports.
Preparers of financial reports are faced with the difficulty of applying complex accounting standards to intricate business structures and transactions while maintaining transparency and clarity. Meanwhile, directors must be assured of compliance and the reasonableness of positions taken within the financial reports.
Ineffective financial reporting practices may not only expose the business to the risk of non-compliance but can also hinder the business’ operations and may ultimately be very costly.
Understanding the various regulatory changes is imperative to preparing financial reports that are not only legislatively compliant but are effective in improving the business’ operations. With the rapid rate of change in the regulatory landscape, however, keeping up to date can be challenging.
