Engagement

Lender Covenant & Special-Purpose Reporting

Agreed-upon procedures and special-purpose reports for banks, joint-venture partners, and grantors who need verified figures outside the annual audit.

When a bank asks for verified working-capital figures or a joint-venture partner wants confirmation of capital contributions, a full statutory audit is often more than needed. Our special-purpose reporting engagements stick to the procedures requested and deliver a clear findings letter.

Who it is for

Borrowers facing covenant tests or partners needing verified contribution figures

Duration

1–3 weeks depending on procedures

How we deliver

Desk review with targeted confirmations

Fee basis

Quote based on procedure list from the lender or partner

What is included

  • Procedure design aligned to the requesting party’s letter
  • Factual findings report without a full opinion
  • Coordination with bank or partner contacts when authorized

What is not included

  • Negotiation of loan terms
  • Forecast or valuation opinions

How the engagement runs

  1. Procedure letter

    We confirm exactly which figures and tests the counterparty expects.

  2. Evidence gathering

    Source documents and confirmations are collected against that list.

  3. Findings report

    Results are reported factually, without expanding into a full audit.

Preparation

Forward the lender’s or partner’s request letter and the latest management pack.

Constraints

Scope is limited to agreed procedures; we do not stretch findings into marketing claims.

Next step

Forward the request letter and we will confirm whether we can accept the work.
