Our take
In order to expand or franchise internationally, businesses rely on complex and expensive management systems, a fact which may discourage or deny them from achieving this growth. AccountsIQ provides a cloud-based and scalable financial management software platform for mid-market SMEs, to manage local finances while providing group-wide control.
AccountsIQ was founded in 2008 in response to the lack of resources for businesses operating across multiple locations. Delivered as a SaaS product, the platform boosts productivity and intelligent decision-making, whilst also cutting costs. It leverages AI and makes use of an open API strategy to bring automation to account synchronisation, electronic payment generation, and more. Importantly, the platform can handle complexities such as sub-groups, currency revaluations and inter-company transactions that come with mid-market SME structures.
AccountsIQ has secured impressive funds that will be used to recruit talent across a number of teams, accelerate growth and enhance the platform. The company has partnered with several technologies to offer a broader range of integrations for clients, the list of which includes financial services, tech, renewable energy and more than 100 NPOs. Technologies that AccountsIQ has partnered with include PwC, Throgmorton, with the hope of setting the company up for further success in the future.
