How London Treasury manages multiple entities and complex financial management with Aqilla accounting software

London Treasury uses Aqilla’s multi-entity accounting software to manage and report on six entities within a single platform, supporting accurate group financial reporting and streamlined consolidated financial reporting. Flexible charts of accounts and tailored analysis structures reflect how each part of the organisation operates, while maintaining full visibility across the wider group of companies.

This approach enables both operational and investment-focused individual entities to be structured in the way they need, without forcing everything into one rigid accounting model. At the same time, the finance department can produce reliable financial statements, manage intercompany transactions, and maintain consistent financial records across all entity transactions.

Streamlining multi-entity accounting software and group reporting

London Treasury uses Aqilla’s multi-entity accounting software to manage and report on six entities within a single platform, supporting accurate group financial reporting across the organisation. Flexible charts of accounts and tailored analysis structures that reflect how each part of the organisation operates, while enabling clear consolidated financial reporting at group level.

This means operational entities and investment-focused entities can each be structured in the way they need, without forcing everything into one rigid accounting model.

As London Treasury’s Financial Controller Ilja Lamin explains:

“We account for six entities, and I think Aqilla is a very versatile system. It allows us to set up the chart of accounts in the way we want, creating the levels of analysis that we need.”

Saving time with Excel add-in for financial management reporting

Aqilla enables London Treasury's team to work with live finance data directly by using the Excel Add-in feature that removes  the need to export, reformat or re-upload information. Instead of pulling data out of multiple systems and manually rebuilding reports, the finance team connects Excel straight to the platform  and analyses up-to-date figures in real time. This strengthens financial visibility and supports more efficient group financial reporting.

This allows finance users to slice, filter and drill into large volumes of financial data instantly, producing high-quality management reports faster and with far greater confidence in the numbers.

Candida Flowers, CFO of London Treasury says:

“You’re able to slice and dice information straight out of the system using Excel… It’s brilliant for producing good-quality reports.”

“We have different entities — some are more operational and others are investment-focused. Aqilla allows us to set up different structures, such as departments, depending on what we need.
