About Us

Who We Are

At Finanche Limited, Chartered Certified Accountants based in Reading, we provide expert support in the preparation and review of consolidated financial statements in accordance with UK legislation and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Why It Matters

Consolidated accounts are a key requirement for groups of companies under the Companies Act 2006. They provide a clear picture of the group’s overall financial position by combining the assets, liabilities, and results of the parent company and its subsidiaries.

Preparing them correctly is not only a legal requirement—it’s vital for presenting reliable financial information to stakeholders, investors, and regulators.

IFRS Support

IFRS is increasingly important for UK companies with international operations or investors. Whether you're required to report under IFRS due to your group structure, overseas listing, or investor requirements, or you're considering a voluntary transition, we can support you every step of the way.

Our team is well-versed in IFRS standards and the reporting differences between IFRS and UK GAAP (FRS 102), and we can guide you through the transition, impact assessment, and reporting requirements.
