About Deloitte

Deloitte is a leading global provider of audit and assurance, consulting, financial advisory, risk advisory, tax and related services.

Our global network of member firms and related entities in more than 150 countries and territories (collectively, the “Deloitte organization”) serves four out of five Fortune Global 500® companies.

Our Assurance services go beyond merely meeting statutory requirements. We help our clients perform better and achieve their business objectives.

We listen to their needs, think about the business implications and tailor our approach accordingly. In today's changing global economy, businesses need trusted advisors.

Because Assurance professionals at Deloitte take the time to understand our clients' business as well as the industries in which they operate, we can help them identify major risks and opportunities over and above performance of the traditional financial reporting function.

About Assurance Services

Our Aspiration is to be the strategic advisor to Finance Leaders, delivering innovative solutions to enable the future of finance, and creating enduring value for our clients.

We are a team of advisors who bring a unique combination of skills to support Finance leaders in solving both complex and day-to-day challenges in the finance function.

We deliver our services across a variety of sectors, including Financial Services, Energy & Resources, Technology, Media and Telecommunications, Consumer, Life Sciences and Public Sector.

In doing so, we each play to our strengths and specialise in one or more of the following key areas of expertise.

Our Areas of Expertise Include Advising on

Close, Consolidate and Report improvement initiatives, including process, policy, automation and digitisation of the month-end financial close

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting as required by JSE Listing Rule 3.84k, including digital enablement

Integrated Reporting and report refresh initiatives to help our clients report value driven by their ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) activities, including climate change

End to End accounting and reporting implications of proposed or planned transactions (such as mergers, acquisitions, integrations, separations and restructuring), including post-merger / separation planning for day 1 readiness of the finance function

Advice relating to changes in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) or other regulatory requirements, including digital enablement and change adoption

Finance function operational support at month end, year-end, or ‘on call’ accounting services

Where Do We Play?

Accounting Operations Advisory (AOA)

We advise finance functions to increase their efficiency and effectiveness from the beginning to the end of the finance reporting cycle.

We leverage Assurance’s deep expertise in accounting in order to build confidence in the value, accuracy, timeliness and reliability of the Controllership function.

Accounting Operations Advisory (AOA) services recognize that leaders need a partner they can work collaboratively with to evaluate their people, processes, infrastructure & controls, and to deliver practical and pragmatic solutions to address increasing demands, existing inefficiencies, and impacts of new technologies, while ensuring Finance remains honest to its core activities.

Accounting and Reporting Advisory (ARA)

Regulatory, technological, and business complexities are driving finance and accounting teams to re-evaluate their accounting policies, processes, controls, and systems.

Sound decision making is reliant on balanced and stakeholder focused corporate reporting.

The complex accounting and reporting decisions organisations make can have a profound impact on how they are evaluated by stakeholders and the overall financial stability of the organisation.

Our Accounting and Reporting Advisory services focus on delivering holistic solutions. These include:

Provision of end-to-end implementation solutions;

Remediation solutions;

Maintenance and monitoring solutions; and

Digital transformation solutions

Disruptive Events Advisory (DEA)

Finance

today often struggles to meet competing priorities.

Not only does management demand Finance to provide quicker and better analytical insights to support decision-making, but new accounting standards, rapid changes to business model and M&A activities also place significant pressure on Finance to adapt fast.

Now more than ever, business and finance executives seek assistance from us to improve the productivity and performance of their finance operations and transform their finance functions into trusted business advisors.

To enable our clients in establishing world-class finance functions, we adopt a cross-disciplinary approach to provide insight on how to better design finance organizations, processes, data and systems with leading practices and digital technology, as well as facilitate our clients in managing capital market transactions, such as getting ready for IPO, carving out business units for spin-off, integrating finance functions after a merger, etc.
