The CAS Group Reporting and Analysis covers all the essential content for a successful career in financial accounting and group reporting in an SME or a large company. In an open and goal-oriented climate, you will learn the skills to take on specialist responsibility for topics such as annual financial statements, consolidated financial statements, accounting, reporting, tax accounting, auditing, ICS, VAT and much more, and thus assume management responsibility in accounting and group reporting. According to the IFRS Foundation, 144 countries require the application of IFRS standards for all or most listed companies. It is therefore essential that specialists and managers acquire the necessary knowledge in this area. In addition to IFRS, we do not consider the accounting standards Swiss GAAP FER and OR in isolation, but apply them in the corporate environment. For this reason, this continuing education course focuses on consolidated financial statements and the associated organizational and system-related issues. Our experienced instructors will discuss with you not only consolidation techniques for designing consolidated financial statements, but also the best procedures in the often demanding process of preparing consolidated financial statements. You will apply your knowledge and methodological skills in a practical case study on listed Swiss companies. This further education is part of the advanced MAS Controlling and DAS Accounting.
