Balance Sheet Analysis

Starting point

Among the external information available on a customer, accounting ratios have become increasingly important for assessing a customer’s solvency. The systematic analysis of balance sheets has become a powerful tool enabling companies to detect financial risks within their customer portfolio ahead of time. Companies therefore use year-end closing reports as a source of information to determine the financial situation of new and existing customers, suppliers, subcontractors, members of buying groups, project partners, etc.
The results of the balance sheet analysis can readily be integrated into your risk management systems, for instance, as permanent feature of a scorecard.

Solution

SOPLEX BA (Balance Analysis) generates various ratios from year-end closing reports (balance sheets and P&L). The results will in part be commented, assessed and translated into a balance sheet score. It is also possible to compare balance sheets from different years.
