Indirect Tax 

Indirect taxation is often a company's third largest cash flow and as such, has a major influence on a company's operation and financial performance.

Indirect Tax

Senior Accounting Officer sign-off and accountabilityThe Senior Accounting Officer (SAO) rules require the appointment of an SAO for every qualifying UK company to take personal responsibility for their company’s tax accounting arrangements.


Over the last couple of years, it is apparent that the key concern for many SAOs lies with their lack of personal oversight coupled with a lack of independent monitoring to identify whether the existing accounting arrangements are adequate and that they are working as intended.
