Interim review engagement
Limited assurance on half-year figures for banks and boards that need a mid-cycle reading without a full audit.
Financial auditing · Wakayama
Rinsen Fiscal Partners conducts independent financial statement audits, inventory observation, and bank confirmation work for companies that file under Japanese GAAP and related reporting frameworks.
Flagship engagement
For mid-sized manufacturers, distributors, and holding companies that need an independent opinion on annual financial statements before filing or lender review. We plan materiality, test revenue cut-off, observe year-end inventory counts, and issue an auditor’s report under Japanese auditing standards.
Typical fieldwork runs four to eight weeks depending on entity count, inventory locations, and subsidiary consolidations.
Review scope & inclusionsRelated engagements
Supporting reviews that sit beside the annual audit — useful when lenders ask for interim comfort, or when management wants a focused look at internal controls before year-end.
Limited assurance on half-year figures for banks and boards that need a mid-cycle reading without a full audit.
Walkthroughs of purchase-to-pay, payroll, and inventory cycles with a written map of control gaps before the next count.
Targeted testing — royalty calculations, grant expenditure, or related-party balances — reported as factual findings only.
How we work
We schedule inventory observation around your shut-down windows, send bank confirmation letters early in the planning phase, and hold a clear issues list with finance before the partner review. No surprise binder dumps on filing week.

“Their team stayed on the factory floor for the entire inventory count in Matsuno — including the cold-storage annex we usually forget to mention.”
Keiko Morita, Finance Director, regional food processor
“The draft findings arrived a week before our lender call. One revenue cut-off point needed extra work, and they said so plainly rather than smoothing it over.”
Haruto Ishida, Controller, trading company
