what we believe in
We believe that the role of the Finance Director in any business is to provide more than just the basic fiduciary duties of the position. The word fiduciary' comes from the latin meaning 'trust' - that's what business owners need to be able to do but that should be the minimum that you receive from your finance team - there is a lot more that they can do for you. The fiduciary duty should be the building block on which we add value to your business. Accountants are more than just 'bean counters'. CIMA qualified accountants in particular do much more than add up numbers and provide lots of reports for you to look at - as Chartered Management Accountants they work in business and as such are better qualified to provide the support and assistance that you need to make your business a success. |
