From Finance to Fintech: our experienced and specialist team can help you.
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.
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.
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.
“Great communication.”
“Although the service we have received has been extremely good, there has been long delays in partner reviews.”
“Great relationship with Audit Partner and Audit Manager which means resolutions are reached quickly on difficult and complex issues. The accounts are put together in an efficient and well presented manner. The audit team generally adopt a logical and pragmatic approach. Only real negatives were that Kennedy audit was a more a drawn out process than perhaps it needed to be. Reconciling the consolidated accounts back to the Cooper Parry calcs was complex and there were some small discrepancies. As discussed with the Audit Partner I do have some concerns on the level of fees.”
“Great conference, helpful team and super service. Thank you.”
“The account were turned around quickly, and we were kept up to date with the progress of the audit”
“Easy communication, always get back to me promptly, provide advice when needed, like the Inflo system very user friendly.”
“The recent external audit and financial statement preparation were executed with professionalism and thoroughness. The auditor team demonstrated strong technical expertise and diligence, ensuring the process was both comprehensive and transparent. Their approach to testing, particularly in collaboration with the ASCL PD team during the first week, was highly effective and contributed to a smooth progression of the audit work, especially given its proximity to the annual conference. One area of improvement would be the timeline planning. The current schedule presents significant pressure in ensuring all necessary work is completed within tight deadlines. We have already discussed the potential benefits of moving some of the audit activities forward and setting clear dates in advance. Proactively scheduling key milestones would allow for better resource allocation and smoother execution. Another area of improvement would be the team working with their internal colleagues to check the partial VAT and advise on the changes to make for the next financial year. Additionally, the format and content of the audit findings report received positive feedback from elected officers. Its clarity and structure enabled effective review and discussion, reinforcing its value in financial oversight. Overall, the service provided was impressive, and the auditors’ commitment to delivering a high-quality review is appreciated. With a few refinements to planning and scheduling, the process could become even more efficient in future audits.”
“Great team, fit well into our office, professional approach whilst both friendly and very supportive. Pleasure to work with.”
“Communication was excellent and timely and the upload and action processes very smart and effective. Audit staff were friendly and helpful throughout the process.”
“Just very easy to deal with, all very relaxing to be honest!”
