Bank – Securities/General Ledger Reconciliation

What is a Securities and GL Reconciliation Report for Banks? Reconciliation Reports are considered monthly data control tools and are used by accountants to help ensure that securities-related transactions tie to the General Ledger. Some of the main functionality in this type of report is that it for any given GL account chosen by the user will list and match with the related securities transactions. Months up to the current period are listed across the columns to track historical balances. You find an example of this type of report below.

Purpose of Securities and GL Reconciliation Reports Banks use Securities and GL Reconciliation Reports to automate and speed up the monthly close process and to ensure that data from sub-ledgers match with the related GL postings. When used as part of good business practices in Accounting departments, a bank can improve its accounting staff efficiency, and it can reduce the chances that mistakes carry through to financial reports.
