Do you need an accountant?
If you run a business, big or small, then the answer is likely to be "yes".
A good accountant is arguably the most valuable adviser to have when running a business. Bearing in mind that it is a legal requirement for all businesses to keep proper records and meet their tax obligations, if your accounts are in order and you are up-to-date with payments, you are more able to concentrate your efforts on building your business and becoming ever more successful.
Not yet got your business off the ground? A good accountant can provide invaluable help in getting you started.
Of course, individuals often need tax advice and assistance too.
Why choose a Chartered Accountant?
Anyone can call themselves an ‘accountant’. There is no legal requirement for any particular training or experience.
A 'chartered accountant', on the other hand, must undertake at least three years training with an organisation authorised by one of the three Chartered Institutes in the UK.
