The Future of Accounting

Many accounting and accounting firms are embracing accounting trends to transform their business and simplify their work. Accounting automation is designed to reduce the burden of accounting and bookkeeping by hand, and to take advantage of the time needed to deal with real time accounting issues.

Future accountants will increasingly need education in digital technology (including cloud computing and large data use), globalisation (accounting services outsourcing), and changing regulations (tax regulations, new forms of corporate reporting, integrated reporting regulations and so on).
Large accounting companies conduct cloud-based surveys, large data, technological changes, new forms of fraud and corruption, and corporate sustainability to address the ongoing and future opportunities and challenges facing the profession.

Blockchain has the potential to improve the accounting profession by reducing the cost of maintaining and reconciling the accounting records and ensuring absolute security on the ownership and history of assets.

Many of the current accounting processes can be optimized through blockchain and other modern technologies such as data analysis or machine learning, which will increase the efficiency and value of the accounting function.

Accountants and their customers benefit greatly from the sharing of access to real-time cloud information and such advances in online computing bring better solutions to tired business models, transforming the profession rather than removing it.

Globalization is the future of accounting, as more and more companies require real-time production and information, mobile marketing and online tools, including the cloud, to expand their customer base worldwide.

Companies have long been looking at the accounting profession for their expertise in strategy, measurement, reporting and analysis.

For example, as companies begin to incorporate more ESG factors into their business risk management processes, they will probably seek accounting officers to help bridge the gap between accounting and risk management.

Accountants will also play an important role in the design, implementation and maintenance of an integrated internal control system on the financial and sustainable objectives of companies.

In fact, since ESG data is more fully integrated into performance management, resource planning and financial reporting systems, CPAs are also Certified Information Technology Professionals (CITP) are likely to be called upon for their technical expertise in areas such as analysis, security and privacy, risk and security.
