An Introduction to Financial Translation

HD0-400 The continuing globalisation of business has led to increased demand for organisations to communicate financial information in many languages. Maintaining the precise details of financial information following a translation is of paramount importance to businesses, investors, clients and suppliers. The smallest of errors could have drastic consequences.

What is Financial Translation?
As with other types of professional translation, financial translation involves the conversion of files, documents, reports, and web content from one language to another. As well as linguistic expertise, financial translation is performed by experts who understand the unique terminology used in this specialist area. A financial translator will typically be qualified in their area of expertise, or would have spent a reasonable proportion of their career in this sector.
Financial statements
Whether translating your annual reports, income statement or next year's forecast, a financial translator will ensure that the complexities of the documents are translated perfectly. The integrity of key metrics such as profit, ROI or EBITDA will be maintained precisely in the final output. Therefore, the quality and accuracy of the translated document will be as exact as the original.

Businesses in the financial services sector often need to present their product portfolio to clients and investors throughout the world. Both the overall picture and the finest details need to be translated perfectly in order to maintain the original document's message and impact. A skilled financial translator will be able to give both of these aspects their attention, resulting in a professional output which meets the objectives intended by the original author.
Cultural sensitivity and regional standards
Not only will a financial translator be an expert in their field, they will also have an acute understanding of their local language, culture and standards. As a result, translated documents will be free from any words or phrases that could cause offence, lead to misunderstanding or be stylistically inappropriate. Additionally, by adhering to regional standards, translated financial data and specialist language will be presented in a localised manner to ensure complete audience understanding.
HD0-100 Summary
Financial translation should always be accurate, appropriate and aligned to local conventions. A financial translation expert will ensure that your document is terminologically precise with full consideration given to the target audience.
