The finance and accounting department is the backbone of every business, no matter how big or small. And no matter if it’s an in-house department or a financial services company working for their clients as an outsourced department.
This is the department that is solely responsible for not just ensuring efficient financial management but, most notably, the financial controls necessary to support all business activities.
People running this all-important department need to understand every aspect of the business so that they can, in turn, develop a solid financial strategy that will support all other facets of the business and ultimately ensure that the business goals are achieved.
This department plays a pivotal function in an organization. It is responsible for safely keeping records of accounts payable and receivable, inventory, payroll, fixed assets, and all other financial elements. A finance clerk or a bookkeeper deals with the everyday transactions in a business.
Some of its key roles include ensuring the business or organization obeys the law, making sure that its operations comply with the law, failure to which could lead to all sorts of unnecessary run-ins with the authorities.
During the pandemic, everything has taken a hard hit, and among the industries adversely affected was the finance and accounting industry.
