UNDERSTANDING THE CHALLENGE FOR FINANCIAL SERVICE BUSINESSES

In a continually evolving sector where FCA regulatory and public scrutiny continues to intensify you need advisers on your side who get it. Advisers that come to the table fully understanding how financial service businesses operate. That get the compliance hurdles and timetables you face. We do.

From our clients we’re hearing that many of our competitors are withdrawing from supporting financial services. Particularly in relation to digital assets. We know that not every firm of accountants wants to take up the challenge of working with this specialist sector. We do.

With our comprehensive suite of services and industry expertise, we look after an impressive range of clients in this sector. Providing audit, advisory and compliance support services. Our team continues to grow. Strengthening our ability to look after your needs with a strong commitment to timetables and hitting deadlines.

Whether you’re a financial institution, a payment service provider on an accelerated growth journey, or working within the world of investments we can help you. Whether you’re a start-up business or an established financial services brand we will have come across the issues you face before. But we’re not complacent, we pride ourselves on really getting to know our clients on an individual basis. Ensuring a bespoke service.

digital assets

The world of digital assets doesn’t stand still. Today it’s cryptocurrencies, NFTs and the blockchain. Everyday there are more solutions. And more regulations follow.

Our digital assets team fill the gap where other advisers can’t or won’t step in to support you. The Cooper Parry culture encourages our people to keep learning. Acquiring more knowledge to support our clients. They’re passionate about the sector. They get the specific risks and challenges you face. Meaning they know how to best assist you.

OUR COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE

At Cooper Parry, we’re dedicated to excellence in everything we do. Our team stays abreast of regulatory changes and industry trends. Making sure we provide relevant and timely guidance and advice.

Our Audit Partners, Chris Evans and Andy Jepson have considerable experience of working with FCA regulated businesses. They’ve established one of the UK’s leading accountancy teams dealing with audit assurance, tax and advisory for the crypto and bitcoin sectors.

Whether you need statutory audit, CASS assurance or a safeguarding focussed audit we can help. Or maybe you need assistance with FCA returns. Or do you think your existing advisers simply don’t get digital assets and financial services?

Alongside our financial services audit team our Deals and Tech team work with a number of high growth fintech companies. Helping them on their growth journey. Whatever your needs we’d love to talk. We know we can help.

REVIEWS

JOSH, NOV 24

“Good service.”

MARTIN, NOV 24

“Met expectations – no issues.”

NELAM, NOV 24

“We can improve by starting the audit earlier, with an interim audit in Late Feb 25. “

DAIANE, NOV 24

“No suggestions.”

PATRICIA, NOV 24

“More organised this year but could still improve.”

MEERA, NOV 24

“All was great. It might be useful to know as and when areas of the audit are completely done for review, or which items are still under review as the audit progresses. So we can ensure the required people are able to respond at a timely manner/ they are aware there will be further queries/ requests coming.”

KATE, NOV 24

“Always amenable, easy to work with. Even when we are being demanding, nothing is too much trouble.”

CHRISTINA, NOV 24

“Great Audit Team, very prompt and although the first for our pension scheme, they engaged and understood the requirements very well.”

ADRIAN, NOV 24

“Audit completed on time but was close to deadline – more sign-off time would have been appreciated.”

NIGEL, NOV 24

“Helpful in solving problems rather than just ticking a compliance box.”
