EY Managed Consolidation and Reporting Services
Managing the consolidation and reporting process on a periodic basis can pose a significant challenge for many organizations. EY Managed Consolidation and Reporting Services (MCRS) combines the finance and accounting knowledge of EY teams with industry-leading technology to provide a technology-supported consolidation and reporting experience, tailored to your requirements.
Build a high-performing finance function at speed
EY Finance Managed Services helped Blue Earth Capital achieve full independence, scalability and confidence without the cost, risk or delay of building a large internal team.
EY MCRS engagements are led by experienced consolidation and reporting professionals who bring to the table deep knowledge of group accounting standards (IFRS, US GAAP, local GAAP) and consolidation technology. The team combines onshore project leadership with scalable global delivery capabilities, working closely with EY’s Financial Accounting Advisory Services (FAAS) practice. Team members hold expertise in technical accounting, intercompany eliminations, currency translation, segment reporting and statutory filing requirements across multiple jurisdictions.
Your business challenge
Periodic consolidation and reporting can be a complex and time-consuming task. Organizations that are adding multiple entities into complex group structures face additional challenges. Group accounting can be exposed to several internal and external pressures, including:
- Regulatory changes resulting in additional reporting requirements (e.g. IFRS 18, CSRD, Pillar Two) that increase the volume and complexity of disclosures.
- Digital disruptions due to fast-changing, innovative solutions that require continual investment and adaptation of legacy consolidation systems.
- Talent scarcity in specialized consolidation and group reporting roles, making it difficult to maintain in-house expertise and ensure continuity.
- M&A activity and group restructuring that continuously change the consolidation scope, requiring frequent adjustments to reporting structures and intercompany processes.
- Increasing stakeholder expectations involving faster close cycles, more granular KPI analysis and improved transparency in financial reporting.
Solution benefits
The solution can be leveraged for internal management reporting, used as a full-fledged external finance function or provided as an enhancement for your existing finance function. Potential business benefits include:
