The latest advice and guidance for Scottish accountants
We recently brought together a group of members who work in, and with, SMEs and the UK’s Small Business Commissioner, Liz Barclay, for a wide-ranging discussion about current issues affecting small businesses in Scotland, with a particular focus on late payment. We’ll be doing more work on this topic soon and hope you can get involved to give us your feedback – keep an eye out for our late payment poll.
The ACCA/Corporate Finance SME Tracker survey continues to be a great way to keep abreast of issues affecting SME businesses in Scotland. Our results for the poll are often picked up in the media – if you’ve not yet signed up to participate in our surveys, you can do so on the Member Insights Community page.
