Backed up by full service chartered accounting firm Azure Group
The concept of a virtual CFO was introduced to the market in 2003 by chartered accountants Azure Group and its CEO Michael Derin. Michael recognised that SMEs, particularly entrepreneurs and those aiming for fast growth, required a higher level of financial expertise and commercial acumen than that normally provided by an accountant or business advisor.
For these businesses hiring a CFO is the solution. However, the challenge this presents is they find it difficult to afford a full time CFO or provide them with enough engaging work to keep them interested. A virtual CFO works with a business on a part time basis so they still benefit from their financial expertise and guidance.
In 2011, Azure Group launched CFO Australia to provide businesses with a comprehensive virtual CFO service offering unlike any other in Australia. Providing a combination of superior and valuable services, highly experienced commercial CFOs and backed up by a full service accounting firm means your business is not only in safe hands, it has every ingredient to create a successful venture.
Being supported by accounting firm Azure Group, means in addition to our virtual CFOs, we can support you by providing expert accounting advice and services for taxation & compliance, outsourced accounting, financial reporting, SMSF administration and corporate governance.
