The Role of a CFO and the Benefits of Outsourcing to GAlico

The Chief Financial Officer’s (CFO) role in a business is a vital one where they are primarily responsible for directing the company’s financial management, usually with a strong team of accountants and bookkeepers to support them.

They report to the CEO and the board of directors in large companies and are second to the CEO in most senior management structures. In large companies they often earn six-figure incomes with a generous package of benefits. So, they are certainly not humble bookkeepers.

Of course, they have a number of other responsibilities which fall into four broad headings:

One of their most important tasks is to ensure the veracity and inclusiveness of the company’s business accounting information, which is the basis for the company’s Audited Financial Statements. The CFOs job requires sharing information with senior management in order that all decisions made are based on solid data which has been reviewed and analyzed.
It’s the CFOs responsibility to provide accurate financial information to the CEO, the board of directors and top-level management. The information will include in-depth analysis and the potential impact on the company as well as any regulatory requirements of any decisions they make.
One of the main areas a CFO is responsible for is compliance, which includes tax calculations and payments, mandatory government fiscal reports, public financial announcements and reports to shareholders. This is a very complex and critical area which takes up a large proportion of a CFOs time.
At every level of management in a company, informed decisions can only be made if they are based on current financial information supplied by the CFO. The CFO has the responsibility of deciding who has access to the data in order to preserve the security of company financial data.
Since most small and medium businesses are unable to afford a full-time CFO, especially in the early stages of building a business, which is an anomaly because that’s exactly when a business needs good financial direction. This is where Push Digit’s CFO service is an amazing benefit for every company, no matter what size they are, to have the value of an on-board CFO at a very affordable hourly rate, just when you need it most.

Bookkeeping and Accounting Services in Dubai

Accounting is a function no business can avoid.
A well-paid expert accountant’s work cannot be replaced by many ordinary accountants or an inexperienced accounting firm to whom you have outsourced your bookkeeping and accounting services in Dubai or any other Emirate of the UAE. You will never be certain on your decisions made on the basis of the accounting records maintained by an ordinary bookkeeper. Intelligent businessmen do not compromise on the quality of their accountants just like they do not compromise on their own lifestyle. They want to make sure the data they are using to make important business decisions is “accurate, complete, and reliable.”

In the UAE, compliance requirements are increasing every passing day and no business owner wants to carry the burden of hefty fines due to non-compliance.

The way great accounting companies or Smart Accountants structure the accounting records also goes to a great deal in determining how it protects itself from non-compliance with the laws in the challenging world outside with ever-changing laws and regulations. Consider the recent changes brought by the UAE Government, being a member of the OECD Inclusive Framework, by enforcing the Economic Substance Regulations in the UAE. These regulations require a company based in UAE to notify the Government Authorities if they carry out any of the relevant activities provided in these regulations. For example, to identify if a Company is performing the relevant activities of “Distribution and Service Centre Business,” the flow of accounting transactions of the Company with third parties, connected parties within UAE or foreign connected parties, will play a major role in the Compliance Assessment of ESR. And only a Smart Accountant knows how to manage and record the flow of transactions and structure the accounts appropriately for such an important assessment. A wrong compliance assessment here can put the Entity in a lot of trouble including substantial fines and penalties.

The same goes for the UBO declaration. How would an ordinary accountant know that a single owner company is also subject to Ultimate Beneficial Owner declaration? This declaration applies to every organization registered in the UAE mainland and free zones except entities owned by the government and financial free zones (Dubai International Financial Center and Abu Dhabi Global Markets).

And it does not end here. How would you, as a business owner, ensure that your accountant is carefully recording business transactions to ensure VAT compliance? Can you avoid VAT Penalties as a result of incorrect bookkeeping and accounting? It is not uncommon that countless businesses in UAE are facing millions of dirhams of fines only because of late VAT registration, as their accounts team was not even aware of the voluntary and mandatory threshold for VAT registration.

These are some of the many reasons hundreds of companies have outsourced their accounting and bookkeeping services in Dubai and other Emirates of the UAE to Push Digits Chartered Accountants. We hire ACCAs, CPAs, and CAs for our clients and then continuously train them in our Push Digits Global Academy to ensure they are up to date with market requirements, the latest accounting and audit tools, integrated business process automation, and the ongoing trend of artificial intelligence in the accounting profession.


Dubai – An Oasis of Commerce

Dubai is a second name for making a massive amount of wealth and drastically growing your business due to its strategic location, the diversified economy from oil to real estate to tourism, and being home to a massive number of large-scale multinational organizations. Dubai is a city where residents have a luxurious lifestyle, significant buying power, and a habit to spend a lot of money every day. With the recent launch of the Nasdaq Dubai Growth Market, Dubai has become a heaven for Entrepreneurs and SMEs.

Remember: Business growth is always halted due to the time you spend in operations. You’re the expert when it comes to understanding the needs that drive your business, but unless it is a small-scale business, monitoring every function is simply impossible.

Entrepreneurs like you are highly creative people, full of great ideas, but less focused on the day-to-day aspects of the business. They readily acknowledge that even if they can do the work themselves, their valuable time is better spent building the business.

To that end, they find experts and then delegate the tasks. One of those tasks is accounting and bookkeeping services, and no better firm to outsource this process than Push Digits Chartered Accountants, which has been featured in Entrepreneur as one of the best bookkeeping and accounting firms in Dubai.


Is my Competitor Outsourcing Accounting Function?

It saves even more money by eliminating sick days, vacation pay, holidays, and innumerable other expenses. Our objective is to provide you a customized accounting service and a system that integrates perfectly with your business.
