The future of accounting is connected

Changing client expectations and technology are transforming the traditional services of the accounting profession. Clients want much more than annual compliance reporting from their accountant.

Core accounting services need to be fast and efficient. Advisory needs to be based on reliable data and insights. Automation needs to free up resources to dedicate to clients and the delivery of advisory services. We call this future connected accounting.
