Regulatory Compliance for Financial Reporting Systems
Taiwan's financial reporting requirements keep evolving. We help you stay ahead without the constant worry.
Our compliance framework addresses FSC regulations, local GAAP standards, and cross-border reporting needs. We've worked with companies managing everything from straightforward monthly closings to complex multi-entity consolidations. The goal isn't perfection on day one—it's building systems that adapt as regulations change.
Built for Taiwan's Regulatory Environment
Most automation tools weren't designed with Taiwan's specific requirements in mind. That creates gaps—especially around tax filings, statutory reporting formats, and local accounting standards.
We've spent years mapping out where those gaps appear. Our setup process accounts for FSC disclosure requirements, business tax integration, and the specific formatting the authorities expect. It's not glamorous work, but it matters when audit season arrives.
Companies we work with typically see fewer revision requests from regulators and spend less time reformatting reports. One manufacturing client mentioned they used to rebuild their quarterly FSC submissions from scratch each period. Now the system generates them automatically with the right structure already in place.
The real test comes during regulatory updates. When reporting requirements change—and they do, usually once or twice a year—you need systems that can adjust without a complete rebuild.
What We Monitor and Maintain
Compliance isn't a one-time checkbox. These are the areas we track continuously to keep your reporting systems current with regulatory expectations.
Financial Supervisory Commission Standards
Taiwan's FSC sets disclosure requirements that differ significantly from international standards. We monitor quarterly updates and adjust reporting templates accordingly.
Local GAAP and IFRS Alignment
Companies operating in Taiwan often need to reconcile local GAAP with IFRS for parent company reporting. We maintain conversion logic that updates as standards evolve.
Cross-Border Reporting Protocols
Multinational operations create additional compliance layers. We handle currency translation, transfer pricing documentation, and consolidated reporting across jurisdictions.
Audit Trail and Documentation
Regulators and auditors need clear evidence of how numbers were derived. Our systems maintain comprehensive logs without requiring manual documentation efforts.
Tax Integration and Reporting
Business tax, VAT, and withholding requirements in Taiwan require specific data structures. We connect financial reporting directly to tax compliance outputs.
Internal Control Frameworks
SOX compliance and internal control requirements demand documented processes and segregation of duties. We build these controls into the workflow itself.

How We Keep Systems Current
Linnea Forsgren leads our compliance monitoring team. She worked at PwC Taiwan for eight years before joining us in January 2023. Her background in FSC audits means she knows exactly what regulators look for during reviews.
Every quarter, her team reviews regulatory updates from the FSC, Ministry of Finance, and relevant industry bodies. When changes affect reporting requirements, we assess which clients are impacted and schedule system updates. Most updates happen automatically during scheduled maintenance windows.
The more complex changes—like when Taiwan adopted IFRS 16 for lease accounting—require custom adjustments. We work through those case by case, usually testing changes in a sandbox environment before deploying to production systems.
