APPLY PRINCIPLES OF PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE TO WORK IN THE FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY
1. BUSINESS DOCUMENTS :
Transactional Documents - A company uses documents to transact business with its clients. To save time, these documents may be formatted as a form, such as an order form, transmittal page, invoice or receipt. The types of transactional documents used vary somewhat by the nature of a business. An insurance agent, for example, generates insurance applications and policies, while a lender uses loan applications and mortgage documents. In some fields, businesses enter into agreements and contracts with others; these documents might be drafted by the company’s lawyer.
Financial Documents - A business uses financial documents to stay within its budget, prepare budget proposals and file tax returns. These documents include receipt records, payroll reports, paid bills, bank statements, income statements, balance sheets and tax reporting forms. These documents may be prepared by the company’s accountant. A business owner uses these documents to determine the financial success of the company and to identify areas that are unproductive. A department head might use financial documents to prepare a budget proposal.
Letters - Business letters are used to communicate with individuals outside of the office. Recipients may include customers, colleagues in other businesses, service providers, professionals who advise the business, government officials and job applicants. A business letter is usually formatted in block style, in which all of the elements of the letter, except the letterhead, are aligned with the left margin. It can be emailed or delivered by mail. If a letter is sent in the text of an email, the sender includes his name, job title and contact information at the bottom of the email.
2. The documents meet the presentation standards by following the organizations procedures and policies for completing and presenting financial information, compile the data accurately and prepare the reports as required.
