Financial translation services for key sectors
Banking
From customer communications to supervisory reporting, clear and compliant translations are essential for meeting national and international banking regulations. Our linguists work with regulatory templates and terminology used by the EBA, ESMA, FCA, FINRA and other global authorities.
Investment and asset management
Investment firms manage complex, data-heavy documentation. We translate fund prospectuses, KIIDs/KIDs, investor reports, ESG disclosures and performance commentary while keeping numerical accuracy, terminology and legal definitions intact.
Fintech and digital finance
Fintech companies move fast – and your multilingual content must keep pace without sacrificing accuracy or compliance. Our in-context review ensures terminology, tone and user journeys remain correct within your digital products.
Insurance
Insurance providers need clear, compliant multilingual content for policies, customer communication and claims. Our insurance-specialised linguists ensure policy wording, disclosures and technical terminology stay accurate, consistent and regulator-ready across every market.

How do our financial translation services support quality, consistency and compliance?
Financial and legal terminology expertise
We maintain extensive terminology databases, built over decades of sector experience, to ensure consistent, accurate use of IFRS-approved terms and other region-specific financial vocabulary across all documents.
Whether translating annual reports, prospectuses, tax filings, or investor communications, our linguists apply contextual precision to numbers, metrics and legal references, giving you translations that are reliable, compliant and professionally polished.
Smart use of machine translation
AI-powered translation can significantly improve turnaround times for financial documents, particularly for repetitive or standardised content such as reporting templates, financial statements and internal communications.
At Sandberg, we carefully configure AI-powered engines to work with your preferred terminology and style, and all outputs undergo human post-editing by specialist linguists. This hybrid approach allows us to deliver fast, cost-efficient translations without compromising accuracy.
We provide clear guidance on where AI-powered translation is appropriate and which documents should always be handled entirely by human translators – particularly sensitive, high-risk, or compliance-critical materials. This ensures your translations meet both speed and quality requirements.
Confidentiality and data security
We understand that financial translations involve highly sensitive information. Our security protocols include:
- Encrypted file transfers (cloud-based or secure ZIP files) to prevent unauthorised access
- Data sanitisation to ensure personal and commercially sensitive data is not stored in translation memories unnecessarily
- GDPR-compliant handling of personal and financial information
- ISO 17100-certified workflows, which provide traceability of every step in the translation process
