Traits of Good Accountants
Accountants in Cyprus like accountants in the UK and I believe everywhere in the world are unfortunately a non-licensed function. This is because regulators all over the world want to be able to do their accounting I believe firstly to understand it and secondly to assist them in the early days when cash flow is a serious issue!
Unfortunately, this causes the issue that anyone who knows how to process few invoices believes they are accountants and offer their services to businesses and entrepreneurs (who cannot judge their knowhow) only to find out years later that their financial affairs are in poor shape and are exposed to local authorities.
What to look for before hiring an accountant?

-
From where do they work? Vist their “offices”

Are they using specialised accounting and payroll software? Ask them to walk you through it.

How many clients do they have? Is the number given to you realistic?
