The craft
Financial translation is the translation of documents from finance, accounting and banking: annual reports, financial statements, prospectuses and banking documents. The translator follows the terminology of the field, the accounting framework of the document and the way figures are presented, which differs from one country to another. The amounts remain as they are in the document: no currency is converted.

Note 2 — Revenue
2.1 Le chiffre d’affaires1 de l’exercice N2 s’élève à x xxx,x3 M€5, contre x xxx,x M€ pour l’exercice N–1.
2.1 Revenue1 for financial year N2 amounted to €x,xxx.x3 million5, compared with €x,xxx.x million for financial year N–1.
2.2 À périmètre et change constants4, il progresse de x,x %.
2.2 On a like-for-like basis4 (constant scope and exchange rates), it rose by x.x%.
2.3 Les montants sont exprimés en millions d’euros et arrondis à la décimale la plus proche ; la somme des éléments peut donc différer légèrement du total.
2.3 Amounts are stated in millions of euros and rounded to one decimal place; the sum of the individual items may therefore differ slightly from the total.
Vocabulary Technical terms that keep changing: EBITDA, interest rate swap, hedge fund.
Precision Figures, dates and currencies follow the conventions of each language.
The regulatory framework Accounting standards, market rules, tax law: each term is read within its framework.
Consistency The same term keeps the same translation from one document to the next.
At each of these marks, an approximate translation would distort how the accounts are read.

It is the translation of documents from finance, accounting and banking: annual reports, financial statements, prospectuses and banking documents.

At AFTraduction, each document goes to a native translator who specialises in finance, then a second linguist revises it.
It depends on who will receive the document.
