If you are in business then you will more than likely need an accountant at some point unless you plan on doing all the bookkeeping yourself, which if you do decide to do, and you are not that experienced, it could end up costing you a lot of time and headache. A Chartered Accountant (CA) is your best port of call to work your books, tax filings and liabilities so that you can free up your time to focus on your business.
Picking the right accountant can be a minefield as any old tom dick or harry can call themselves an accountant. There are no special training requirements or licensing to be referred to as an 'accountant' and anyone can place that name on their business cards and letterhead and offer an accountancy service. However, if you are looking for a fully qualified professional to take care of your books then you need to look for a chartered accountant. A chartered accountant is somebody who has completed a thoroughly educational and training program and has been accepted into one of three organisations that provide employment verification, specialised training and testing.
Chartered accountants normally built relationships with their clients that last for decades as once you find a CA that you can rely on and trust there is no need to keep changing. A chartered accountant can help you reduce your tax liabilities so that you can keep more of your hard-earned money for yourself.
Choosing the right CA be a difficult task, sometimes people choose the one that their family and friends use if they are highly recommended, however, it is always a good idea to shortlist a few CA's, have initial meetings with them to find out costs and services they provide.
