An accurate financial translation
Generally speaking, financial documents are highly specialised texts. As such, translating these documents is much more complex than most other types of translation. Additionally, a financial translation must be performed very thoroughly in order to maintain the proper context and to eliminate any misinterpretations. We routinely provide financial translations for our regular clients that operate in the financial sector; from quarterly and annual reports, pension plans, financial regulations and insurance policies.
A wealth of expertise in financial translations
As a financial translation agency, we provide financial translations for many of our clients on a daily basis. Our in-house translators safeguard the quality of our translations and will be happy to consult with you if there are any questions regarding your assignment. One of the most common types of translation for our clients in the financial sector is the translation of annual reports.
These annual reports need to be translated in accordance with the IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards). This is an accounting standard for corporate annual reports.
"Being able to provide a solution for everyone’s translation needs is a great feeling."
ISO-9001 certified and confidential
The majority of financial documents we translate are highly confidential. This is why a non-disclosure agreement applies to every single translation we do. This is also part of our general terms and conditions. If so desired, we may also be able to sign non-disclosure agreements drawn up by our clients. In addition, the quality of your translation is absolutely vital. In order to safeguard objectivity, financial documents are translated as accurately to the source text as possible.
As a financial translation agency, we are both ISO-9001 and ISO-17100 certified. These standards require us to work with experienced financial translators, and to have every single translation checked by an experienced revisor. This approach means you are guaranteed a high-quality financial translation that is both accurate and clear. Additionally, we are a certified translation agency with experienced translators!
We translate the following types of financial documents on a regular basis:
- Fiscal reports
- Customs documents
- Financial business advice
- Pension schemes
- Financial folders and brochures
- Insurance policies

This can be easily done via our online quote form, email or WeTransfer. Let us know exactly what your specific wishes are. This way, we can get off to a good start.
We diligently review your request
This enables us to discover the story behind the words. We can decipher what must be included in order to properly express the translated message. We then check the text(s) to see if it is appropriate to use a translation memory.

Frequently asked questions about business translations
This is a less than ideal but possible translation solution whenever the requested language combination is so rare that we don’t have translators readily available to fulfil the project. With an intermediate translation, a text is first translated to a language that more of our translators speak and from there translated again to the target language. Considering that the labour required to complete the translation is doubled, this solution comes with added costs.
We recommend using a translation memory when professionally translating annual editions of texts. Think of year plans and commemorative reports just to name a few. Using a translation memory ensures consistency in style and tone of voice that's difficult to replicate without a translation memory. It also usually ends up being more affordable since previously translated texts aren’t charged again.
Now that we are living in times where grand scale hacks seem to be more normal than ever, we of course want to protect our clients from this. To ensure that your data doesn’t end up in the wrong hands, we have strict policies regarding the way we process data that are in alignment with our ISO-27001 certification. More on our certifications and what it entails here.
Whenever a business is expanding to a foreign market, dealing with a second justice system with its own rules, laws and exceptions is a given. To ensure that the foreign branches of a multinational aren't susceptible to any legal breaches and its consequences, it is of upmost importance that essential paperwork is translated by a sworn translator. This ensures that the contents and allowances contained within the paperwork is legally sound in the second market of choice.
It often doesn’t matter how many brand awareness you enjoy at home, when expanding to a foreign market you usually have to start from zero and work your way up. To ensure this goes as smoothly as possible, it is prudent to “feel local” to your new market by investing in the localisation of your texts. This way you earn the trust of your new target audience quicker which of course helps with conversion.

Translation technology for financial translations
Translation memory
Our translation memory software can recognise repeated and previously translated texts. This increases the consistency of the translation and prevents extra costs. Previously translated texts are saved in the translation memory. Each client has their own translation memory.
Terminology list
If a specific translation or tone of voice is requested, this can be stored in the terminology list. These translations will then be suggested to the translator during the translation process. This improves the consistency of the translation and allows for special requests to be accommodated.
Quality control
In addition to a second check by a human translator, we apply an automatic quality control check. This includes stylistic improvements as well as a spell check and overall translation review. This aids the translator and revisor to better find mistakes in the texts as well as to improve the consistency of the translation.
