Further strengthening of the UK Anti-Money Laundering Regime
|
|
|
|
|
Over the summer, we ran a specific communications campaign with all UK members about the statutory requirement to be supervised under the Money Laundering Regulations. This requirement applies to all those who are ‘in Practice’, that is when providing bookkeeping and accounting services (i.e. other than as an employed person or on an unpaid/voluntary basis).

Webinar: how to value price bookkeeping services
|
|
|
|
|

Word from Sarah: Confused.com
|
|
|
|
|
In her regular feature, Sarah Palmer tackles the issues that matter.
So the rulebook which us bookkeepers have been using for the last forever has just been ripped up and put in the bin. Well that’s what it feels like to me and I know I’m not alone!
Over the last few years we have experienced an enormous change in our industry predominately led by the software companies. I think we have done well, collectively, to embrace these changes.

International - Greece, lenders to start talks again, as countdown starts
|
|
|
|
Greece’s creditors will return to Athens next week to assess its bailout compliance, in a review which should be concluded swiftly if the country is to meet its goal of emerging from lenders’ supervision next year.
Athens hopes to wrap up the review by January to start discussions with its lenders right after on the terms of exiting its current, 86-billion euro bailout in August 2018, and on further debt relief - a long-standing Greek demand.
