4 key benefits that set us apart!

Advantage #1

Initiate the inventory of controls and their breakdown

Controls are associated with each of the risks in your corruption risk mapping and qualified, taking into account their specific needs (existing control, to be implemented or not applicable, frequency, etc.).

All controls identified at the central level will be distributed across all entities (BUs, subsidiaries, etc.) based on the actions and third parties concerned, so that they can adjust the qualification of these controls and define any associated actions.

Each iteration of a control is subject to rigorous monitoring (status, control author (or automatic), due date, completion date, and submission of control evidence, etc.), a key point to ensure your organization's compliance with the Sapin 2 anti-corruption law.

According to Law No. 2016-1691 of December 9, 2016, known as Sapin 2, companies must implement “accounting control procedures and an internal control and evaluation system for the measures and procedures comprising the anti-corruption system” and ensure that it “covers the risk situations identified in the corruption risk mapping,” that it “is adapted to these risks and capable of controlling them,” and that it “is regularly updated with encountered risk situations and the results of controls performed.”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT ACCOUNTING CONTROL PROCEDURES

Accounting control procedures are systematic processes established to monitor, verify, and validate an organization’s financial transactions. They aim to ensure the accuracy, integrity, and compliance of accounting records with current standards and regulations.

To implement effective procedures:

  • Document your processes: Identify critical tasks and establish clear guidelines for each step.
  • Automate controls: Use accounting software to automate verifications and minimize human errors.
  • Train your teams: Ensure all employees understand the procedures and their importance.
  • Conduct regular audits: Perform internal audits to verify the effectiveness of controls and adjust them as needed.

The main types of accounting controls include:

  • Preventive controls: to avoid errors before they occur.
  • Detective controls: to identify errors after they have been committed.
  • Corrective controls: to correct detected errors.
  • Directive controls: to guide employees on how to perform their tasks correctly.

By automating controls, ensuring constant monitoring, and providing real-time reports, a good accounting control system quickly detects anomalies and suspicious behavior, thereby reducing the risk of fraud. The traceability of actions and data history also strengthen the security of financial processes.

Accounting control software is a computer application designed to help organizations manage, monitor, and improve their accounting and financial control processes. This software is essential for ensuring compliance with accounting standards and regulations, as well as for minimizing the risks of financial errors and fraud.

These procedures are essential for preventing errors, fraud, and financial irregularities. They also ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, strengthen financial transparency, and support informed decision-making within the company.

Accounting controls must comply with national and international standards such as IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards), GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), and regulations specific to your industry or country, such as the Sapin 2 Law in France.

Accounting control software facilitates the automation of verification processes, centralizes data, ensures the traceability of transactions, and improves the speed and accuracy of controls. It also allows for meeting compliance requirements while optimizing the company’s financial performance.

Robust procedures not only minimize financial risks but also strengthen the company’s credibility with investors, regulators, and business partners. They contribute to the organization’s sustainability by ensuring transparent and reliable financial management.
