5 Reasons to switch

Switching accountants is not as hard as you think once you notice the indications. It just sounds complicated if the process lacks a speedy turn-over.

If your new accountant can manage the transfer of tasks more efficiently, you can expect your business to run more smoothly than you think.

You only need to look at these five obvious reasons to understand that your current accountant is not the right one.

  1.  Insufficient technological skills
  2. Lack of regular, clear communication
  3. Lack of professionalism and standardization
  4. Not hands-on nor specific with your business
  5. Too expensive

How to switch to a new one 

  • Draft a letter or email your previous accountant.
  • Then, your new accountant will obtain a ‘professional clearance‘.
  • After that, request the transfer of documents.
  • Finally, your new accountant will perform an anti-money laundering review.
