Financial and Corporate Translation
Statements, filings, and reporting, where a number in the wrong place is the only error anyone will remember.
What we handle.
Financial statements and annual reports. Audit reports and management letters. Prospectuses and offering documents. Compliance and AML documentation. Board minutes and shareholder communications. Due diligence packs. Company profiles and investor decks. Bank statements for visa files.
The practical problem.
Accounting terminology is jurisdictional. IFRS and US GAAP name the same things differently, and a translator who maps them one to one produces a document an auditor will query. Number formats differ too: a decimal comma in one market is a thousands separator in another, and getting that wrong in a statement is not a typo, it is a different figure. We fix the convention with you before we start.
Who actually does the translation?
A human linguist who works in your subject and translates into their native language. We match by field before we match by language, because a translator who is fluent but does not know your industry produces something readable and wrong.
Do you use machine translation?
Not as the translation. Our linguists use professional tools, including translation memory and terminology databases, and those tools are what keep your terminology consistent across years of work. But a person translates your document and a second person reviews it. If a project would genuinely be better served by machine translation with human post-editing, and some high-volume, low-stakes projects are, we will offer it, price it as what it is, and tell you exactly what you are getting.
What if the translation is not right?
Tell us within 30 days of delivery and we correct it at no charge. The correction is against the original brief: if your requirements change, that is new work and we will quote it.
Is every file reviewed?
Yes. One linguist translates, a second reviews. It is not an optional tier and it is not an upsell. It is the reason our delivered work comes back accepted.
Which variant of my language will you use?
The one your reader uses. Latin American Spanish and European Spanish are not interchangeable. Neither are Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Brazilian and European Portuguese, or Modern Standard and Gulf Arabic. Tell us the audience and the jurisdiction and we will tell you which variant you need. Each language page explains what we default to and why.
Who sees my document?
The assigned translator, the reviewing linguist, and the project manager. Nobody else, inside the company or outside it. Every linguist in our network is under a signed non-disclosure agreement before they are given access to anything.
Tell us what you need translated.
