Bank Account Reconciliation

Definition

The reconciliation process involves cross-checking a company’s cash records with its bank statement to ensure every transaction is recorded correctly and any differences are resolved. Matching cash records with bank balances helps businesses catch discrepancies due to things like unprocessed checks, bank fees, deposits in transit, or any mistakes made by the bank or the business itself.

Why it matters

Bank reconciliations improve accuracy by catching errors early, help detect unauthorized transactions or fraud, and overall enhance cash flow management. Knowing exactly what funds are available allows businesses to meet obligations on time and avoid overdrafts or missed payments. 

With reconciled bank statements, businesses can simplify audits and meet regulatory standards more easily by ensuring all transactions match up with reported financials.
