At Nolands, Capital Assurance is more than a service - it’s a specialised capability designed to bring clarity and trust to areas of financial reporting that demand technical expertise. Whether it’s the valuation of complex financial instruments or the validation of high-stakes financial models, we provide independent, defensible assurance that strengthens audit quality, supports investor confidence, and meets stakeholder expectations. Our team engages where deep financial insight is essential - complementing audit functions and empowering decision-makers with confidence in the numbers behind the strategy.
The financial instruments used in modern investment portfolios are often far from straightforward. When auditors encounter unlisted financial instruments - such as derivatives, private equity holdings, options, structured notes, or warrants - they may not have the technical expertise in-house to conduct a thorough audit.
Nolands Capital bridges that gap.
Our Capital Assurance team integrates seamlessly with the audit function - either as part of Nolands’ own audit engagements or in collaboration with third-party audit firms - to provide a specialist audit capability. We perform a comprehensive analysis of these instruments and report directly to the audit partner, ensuring that the audit opinion is grounded in accurate, expert-led insights.
This service is particularly valuable when:
Our approach is rigorous, transparent, and aligned with international best practices, giving audit teams and stakeholders the assurance they need in high-risk or high-complexity financial environments.
Financial models play a pivotal role in key corporate activities such as fundraising, bidding for tenders, infrastructure planning, or strategic forecasting. These models often require validation through an independent assurance process to meet the expectations of lenders, investors, and regulators.
Nolands Capital offers a dedicated financial model assurance service, tailored for organisations that need a formal, independent opinion on the integrity of their models. Our team conducts an end-to-end review of the financial model, covering:
Following this review, we issue a detailed assurance report or opinion letter confirming that the model is free of material misstatements and is constructed in accordance with best-practice modelling standards.
It is important to note that this service does not constitute a statutory financial audit. Instead, it is an assurance engagement over non-financial information, specifically aimed at building trust in the model’s structure and results.
Our team brings deep technical knowledge in financial instruments and modelling, with experience across sectors and jurisdictions.
We provide unbiased assurance services that meet the expectations of auditors, funders, and regulators alike.
Whether you need support as part of a statutory audit or as a standalone engagement, we adapt our approach to suit your needs.
We work closely with both internal Nolands audit teams and external audit firms, delivering value-added insights and reliable results.
If your organisation is seeking assurance over complex financial instruments or requires an expert opinion on a financial model, Nolands Capital Assurance team is ready to assist.

Capital Assurance is a specialised service that provides independent validation of complex unlisted financial instruments and financial models. It strengthens audit quality, supports investor confidence, and ensures decision-makers can rely on the numbers behind critical strategies.
Capital Assurance is essential for unlisted and complex instruments such as derivatives, structured notes, private equity holdings, options, and warrants. These instruments often fall outside the expertise of standard audit teams, requiring specialised technical knowledge.
Our Capital Assurance team works alongside auditors—either within Nolands’ own audits or in collaboration with third-party firms—providing specialist evaluations of complex investment vehicles. This ensures audits remain comprehensive, accurate, and defensible.
Financial models underpin critical business activities such as fundraising, infrastructure planning, and strategic forecasting. Independent assurance validates assumptions, inputs, calculations, and outputs, giving lenders, investors, and regulators confidence in the integrity of the model.
We review the soundness of assumptions, the accuracy of inputs and calculations, and the logic of outputs and forecasts. Following this, we issue a formal opinion that supports funding applications, tender bids, or regulatory compliance.
Our services are sought by auditors needing technical expertise, businesses holding non-listed or bespoke instruments, and organisations requiring assurance on high-stakes financial models.
Our team brings specialist expertise, independence, and credibility. We offer flexible engagements—either integrated with audits or as standalone reviews—ensuring auditors, funders, and regulators receive reliable, value-added assurance.
Yes. A credible, independent valuation demonstrates financial health and growth potential, giving investors confidence and helping you secure funding or partnerships.
