The Capital Report was designed with the sole purpose of helping accountants have easy access to shareable data that they can share with their clients. To empower them to have more ownership of their numbers and have more purposeful conversations. 

The purpose of the report is to offer you three main benefits:

• Prepare for meetings in minutes

• Spot risks and opportunities

Look at the key needs and opportunities across your whole portfolio in one place. With new filtering abilities on Monitor, you’ll be able to filter clients to explore specific opportunities such as ‘poor liquidity’ or ‘insufficient cash’. Helping you target your clients’ business risks before they become a threat, with ease. 

• Share directly with clients 

Capital Reports offers you the ability to share live versions of the report with your clients. Giving them insight, control and understanding of their business finance. 

Helping you to have a more collaborative relationship, empowering your clients to have more ownership of their numbers. The main aim is that you’ll be better equipped to supercharge both your client conversations and your relationship. 

3. What is the Capital Report made up of?

The Capital Report is a report detailing business performance and credit based data. 

• Business performance: Get a clear overview of your clients’ most important business information including revenue and profit before tax – helping you better keep track and spot when there is poor liquidity in business.

• Credit information: See credit score and risk factors as well as how many searches have been carried out in the last 12 months.
