Always gonna need American cpas to make partners and sell work here.
I barely want to talk to my offshore team due to language barrier and time zone difference.
You think my clients want to talk to them at all? Hell nah
Yea they do tend to compete on price but firm reputation is still pretty important. Otherwise the big 4 would’ve lost all their clients to GT / BDO / whatever a long time ago.
I’m willing to bet that those firms struggle when clients realize they have to work with Indian firms without USA professionals as intermediaries. I mean how could they complete an audit without significant client communication?
I also am willing to bet, audit failures from those firms will drive some regulatory measures.
As a CPA I personally feel like this profession will be seriously outsourced (cpa testing in other countries, emphasis on offshore at big 4). I’m trying to learn data on the side and would jump at a role that allows me to combine my accounting background with data. Just my two cents, people do call me paranoid so take what I say with a grain of salt.
I think having a cpa with a data analytics skillset could be quite valuable. I know it can be outsourced but I think it’s best I learn technical skills
Data work is being outsourced too
Data
A lot of data analysis is being “outsourced” to our AI tools also I think foundational knowledge in accounting is highly transferable and helps to understand the metrics and data you’d use for analysis. I love the idea of doing data on the side or even going full throttle into AI model building but a lot of the data transformation and analysis I think is going to be automated. I love data too and have been trying to up skill
Plus you need to be able to clean the data for the AI model to work flawlessly.
