Outsourced accounting and finance for US businesses: the guide

Outsourcing all or part of your finance function — accounting, FP&A, controllership — lets a growing US business gain reliability and insight without adding headcount. Here is what you can outsource, how, and at what cost.

What can you outsource?

• Accounting & bookkeeping: close, reconciliations, financial statements.
• FP&A & controllership: budgets, reporting, margin analysis.
• Treasury: cash forecasting, banking.
• Finance leadership: via fractional CFO services.

Why outsource controllership and FP&A?

An outsourced controller or FP&A lead brings structure to your numbers without the cost of a hire: reliable financials, dashboards and decision support.

How much does it cost?

Cost depends on scope and seniority, billed on a day or hourly rate. See our pages on management control and accounting.
