Finance and Accounting Outsourcing

We currently provide finance and accounting outsourcing services to more than 50 clients from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland for their subsidiaries in China.

As a professional finance and accounting outsourcing team, we are constantly updated on the latest accounting regulations, tax regulations, and guidelines. We invest heavily in hardware and software devices, tax law databases, human resources, and training. Our extensive experience and skills in setting up financial systems help our clients meet their financial expectations in China. In addition, we provide compliance services that allow companies to focus on handling their core tasks and achieving their business performance goals.

Reconciliation of Financial Statement

Our accounting & tax teams have already provided services to a wide range of German, Austrian, and Swiss clients from different industries for many years.

We have gained much practical experience in reconciling Chinese financial statements into financial statements prepared according to HGB or IFRS. Due to the differences between Chinese and German standards, the classification of the report accounts, and the way they are presented, we have established a specific business unit for the reconciliation of the annual financial statements to provide intensive support to German, Austrian, and Swiss parent companies with Chinese subsidiaries.
