We are often instructed to consider detailed financial information on businesses in which the parties have an interest to identify if there are good reasons to believe that their financial performance or financial position is misrepresented. These aspects are vital in relation to business valuations and in assessing the ongoing earnings of the businesses and their ability to provide a sustainable income to relevant parties.
Our forensic accounting work on the financial affairs of the parties can cover many aspects, including a detailed consideration of their pension arrangements, the tracing of funds to unearth hidden assets and to ensure that assets belonging to the parties have been stated at the correct amounts and the identification of valid information to support significant liabilities. We often need to analyse complex transactions to ensure that we are able to obtain a “complete” financial profile of the parties.
