We Provide Accounting & Bookkeeping Services to the Financial Services Industry

The financial services industry grows more and more complex every year, as do the challenges around compliance. Complying with AFSL obligations is an essential part of business for many financial services organisations, yet this can come with a lot of risks. QC Accountants have AFSL accountants who are specialists in the financial services industry.

Compliance requirements change frequently. ASIC’s financial requirements are tightening every year and it can be difficult to ensure compliance on an ongoing basis. As part of our AFSL compliance services, we can assist organisations that hold AFSLs to meet compliance requirements, such as meeting ASIC’s Regulatory Guide 166.

QC Accountants have a long history of working with financial services organisations and offering bespoke service packages to meet their varied needs.

Our aim is to make it as easy as possible for your business to manage your business needs, maintain a sufficient level of regulatory capital, and ensure compliance at all times. We’ll work with you to identify any areas of non-compliance and offer practical custom solutions to address any issues.

We also work to ensure your financial services systems and processes work to support your overall business goals.

What Our Clients Say

Chris and the team have offered constant and ongoing advice and support as we’ve faced the challenges of a fast-growing business. QC Accountants have been able to keep up with us and guide us each step of the way. QC’s highly experienced and friendly staff have a deep understanding of our business’s unique needs and are an absolute pleasure to work with. I’d recommend QC to anyone as they’ve always been there offering excellent support whenever needed.

When purchasing our business Chris from QC Accountants provided a comprehensive due diligence report and this report was crucial in understanding the business we were purchasing. We then used this information to negotiate the purchase price. He also assisted with providing documentation to the bank to help secure our business loan. The past 18 months during COVID have been challenging, Chris’s ongoing support, help and advice has been priceless during this difficult period. QC Accountants took the stress away when applying for Job Keeper, cash-flow boost and Government grants. AC Fitouts is extremely happy with Chris and the team at QC Accountants. They are wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend their services. They are professional, knowledgeable, reliable and friendly.

QC Accountants has been of great assistance to my business in setting up and implementing an efficient accounting system which has permitted strategic decision making surrounding marketing, service expansion and investments. They have great communication, a friendly and down to earth team, and are transparent and always willing to assist or provide advice when needed. QC has an array of services which were tailored to our individual business needs, not to mention competitive pricing.

QC Accountants have been instrumental in the growth and streamlining of my business. They have assisted me with tax grants that I would have otherwise not known about or been unable to complete alone. The team at QCA are very responsive, friendly and patient. If I have a problem or question, they are onto it right away. I would recommend them to everyone because they are an honest and local business that you can trust.

QC Accountants were a shoulder to lean on in our early days, helping and guiding our business to meet all our regulatory and financial obligations. They kept their steady hand on the tiller, playing the role of Chief Financial Officer, from financial modelling, budgeting, bookkeeping, financial accounts preparation, board management accounts, liaising with our auditors - nothing was too much. This allowed us to focus on growing our business with their financial input which was invaluable! Their accessibility, their willingness to listen to our particular needs and coming up with a solution is first class. For any business out there that doesn't have the ability to have a dedicated Financial Director then appoint QC Accountants. They will get the job done and give you back the time to focus on what is important to you and your business.

QC Accountants have been a great foundation of knowledge and support for us as new business owners. I'm able to call or email anytime with the same day turnaround and there is always someone on hand to help navigate any issues within the business. There is never a problem too big or small! I would recommend QC Accountants because they are relatable, reliable and efficient. As a new business owner learning the ropes, it is really nice to be able to call and have someone teach me the process in how they solved an issue so I can learn along the way. I've always felt like there are no silly questions and we are all part of a team.
