Lease accounting and contract management

For many reasons, lease accounting can be a challenge for organisations. EY teams can help you rethink and transform your lease accounting and contract management processes.

Your business challenge

Keeping their lease data up to date can be a major challenge for many organisations. While some may struggle with the technology aspect, high workload or poor processes, others contend with deficient Internal Control over Financial Reporting (ICFR). Often, processes and systems established during a transition to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) 16 do not consider current developments or take advantage of state-of-the-art technology offerings.

The EY Lease Accounting and Contract Management service automates your lease process, which can lead to efficiency gains and cost savings.
