Case Study: Houlihan Lokey achieves streamlined global payroll efficiency and centralized reporting with Payslip

How Payslip Transformed Efficiency and Reporting at Houlihan Lokey

Houlihan Lokey, an investment bank with more than 2,500 employees, faced fragmented global payroll operations—multiple in-country providers, inconsistent gross-to-net outputs, and time-consuming reconciliations that slowed reporting. To tackle these challenges, Houlihan Lokey engaged Payslip and its Global Payroll Control Platform to centralize payroll processes and standardize data across jurisdictions.

Payslip standardized disparate payroll outputs (Excel, PDF, CSV), enabled the firm to “cherry-pick” in-country providers while maintaining consistent reporting, and delivered centralized reporting tools that sped up responses to finance and business leaders. The result was improved accuracy and efficiency: what previously could take a day to compile can now be delivered in about an hour, strengthening payroll’s visibility and support across the business.
