Eduardo Carrasco P. Audit Partner · Certified Public Accountant Twenty years leading finance and tax in non-metallic mining, retail and services.
Industries
Retail
Many stores, lots of inventory, thin margins and a tax authority that checks every receipt.
Industries
Services
Revenue by contract and by progress, people as the main cost, and work in progress to measure.
Industries
Trading
Import, distribute, sell: exchange rates, customs and inventory in transit at every closing.
Industries
Logistics
Freight forwarders and operators: own revenue versus pass-through, correspondents and foreign currency.
Who we work with
Companies that need to prove something to someone: a bank, a partner, a parent company, a regulator.
- Chilean subsidiaries of foreign groups
A parent that reports abroad, closes on its own calendar, needs transfer pricing documentation and, if US-listed, internal controls under SOX.
- Mid-sized companies that need audited financial statements
For a bank renewing a credit line, a new shareholder coming in, or a board that wants an independent opinion before deciding.
- Logistics, trading, services, non-metallic mining and retail companies
Plus investment vehicles and foundations. Industries where we have worked and understand the operation, not just the books.
Three fronts every foreign-owned subsidiary in Chile has to cover
A small local firm rarely handles them well; a large one usually hands them to a junior team. Here the partner runs them, in English, on your group's calendar.
SOX Section 404 internal controls
We assess whether the subsidiary is a significant component of the group and, if so, support the ICFR assessment and documentation the parent requires.
Reference: PCAOB AS 2201Transfer pricing
Review and documentation of intercompany transactions under Article 41 E of the Chilean Income Tax Law, and preparation of the annual Form 1907 filed with the SII.
Due June 30, with automatic extension to September 30IFRS to US GAAP
Reconciliation of local IFRS financial statements with the parent's reporting and consolidation requirements, delivered as a reporting package in your group's format.
Local statutory books stay compliantServices
Every engagement starts with a conversation about what your company needs to demonstrate and to whom. Scope comes after, not before.

A note from Eduardo
- Certified Public Accountant and Auditor
- Postgraduate degrees in Taxation, Finance and Internal Audit
- Certified in IFRS and Management Control
- Former finance manager and consultant in non-metallic mining, retail and services companies
Before auditing companies, I ran finance inside them. I know what a board asks, what a bank worries about, and where a contingency usually hides.
I founded this firm to offer what mid-sized companies and foreign-owned subsidiaries rarely find: the rigor of a large firm, with the person who signs the report answering your call.
