Financial instruments and financial risk management

Financial instruments, their valuation, accounting, reporting, and financial risk management are a broad area with implications not only for financial institutions but also for non-financial corporations.

Our services focus on analysing financial risks, modelling their impact, and setting management strategies, including setting risk appetite. We develop our clients' risk management strategies into business and hedging strategies.

Specifically, we assist our client companies in the accounting capture of financial instruments and risk management strategies in financial statements. Our team specialising in accounting and reporting for financial instruments provides methodological advice on, e.g., the classification, valuation, and impairment of financial instruments, engages in the development and review of impairment models in accordance with international accounting standards, assists with the valuation of bonds, derivatives, and structured finance instruments, and advises on hedge accounting.

The financial instruments accounting and financial risk management team covers the reporting of financial instruments primarily for Czech and international accounting regulations. Our clients include banks, investment and pension funds, issuers of securities, as well as companies hedging risks in all areas of business.
