Accountants can access, review and advise on their clients’ bank data as well as  interpret how their clients are performing using Countingup’s web-based  Accountant Hub. With bank branches closing in record numbers, the role of the  accountant continues to broaden to fill this void. Accountants are extending beyond  their core accounting work to also offer banking services and advice.   

Tim Fouracre, founder and CEO of Countingup, said: “We’re excited to be at the  forefront of changing the accounting industry to bring accountants more into the  world of banking. Launching the profit and loss report in our web-based Accountant  Hub is just the beginning. Soon accountants will have the ability to create journals,  export a trial balance and submit an MTD compliant VAT return - all of this  functionality sitting on top of our business current accounts.”    

It’s a busy time of year for accountants with the self-assessment tax filing deadline  looming on 31 January. The newly launched profit and loss report in Countingup’s  Accountant Hub makes it easy to complete a tax return for those clients who have  left it to the last minute. Many sole traders do leave it late. According to HMRC, 7%  of tax returns were submitted late last year.   

Over 400 accountants have registered for the Countingup Accountant Hub to  access their clients’ bank transaction data. The Accountant Hub provides the  functionality to re-categorise transactions, view receipts, read notes about transactions, export the data and to analyse how the business is performing with a  powerful and flexible profit and loss report.
