How we usually help

Three routes into the same practice. Start with the one that sounds closest to your situation — we will point you to the right service from there.

1 — Business owners and management

Services for International and Non-Finnish-Speaking Business Owners

Running a business in Finland should not require you to navigate audit, accounting and financial reporting requirements in Finnish. We provide audit and selected financial advisory services in English, explain what is required and help you move matters forward.

Clear communication in English

Requirements, document requests, findings and next steps are explained in plain English.

Finnish requirements made understandable

What Finnish statutory audit and financial reporting obligations actually mean for your company.

One professional point of contact

David Vatka, Authorised Public Accountant (APA), is personally responsible for the work.

One practical entry point

You do not need to know in advance which Finnish service category your question belongs to.

Discuss your situation Finnish statutory financial statements

2 — Finnish entities of international groups

Audit of Finnish Subsidiaries

Finnish statutory audit with clear English-language coordination for local management, group finance and the parent company. Your group has a company in Finland; the statutory audit is handled here, in a way your organisation can follow.

Finnish statutory audit handled locally

The audit is performed against the Finnish entity's own statutory obligations and reporting environment.

English-language coordination

Communication with Finnish management, foreign owners, group finance and parent-company teams in English.

International reporting environment understood

Group ERP systems, centralised bookkeeping, shared service centres and group reporting packages are routine, not exceptional.

Group auditor coordination when needed

Where group instructions also apply, local statutory audit and group reporting are coordinated in one timetable.

Discuss the audit of your Finnish subsidiary Need Finnish statutory financial statements rather than an audit?Group reporting is also required

Preparing statutory financial statements and auditing them are separate engagements; independence rules determine which of them can be provided to the same client.

3 — Group audit teams

Group Audit Support in Finland

Component auditor cooperation and Finnish audit work for international group audit teams, group finance and consolidation functions.

Component auditor work

Finnish component procedures performed in line with group audit instructions and component materiality.

Reporting packages and deadlines

Group reporting packages delivered in the format and timetable the group engagement team works to.

Findings communicated clearly

Open items, findings and responses to group auditor queries are reported without delay.

Combined scopes coordinated

Where Finnish statutory audit and group reporting are both required, the two scopes run together.
