AAB Launches Bespoke Virtual Finance Function for Growing Businesses

We are delighted to announce the expansion of client services with our new Virtual Finance Function (VFF).

The new service will be a vital addition for businesses operating across the island of Ireland, scaling-up for export markets or cross-border.

The Virtual Finance Function offers businesses a cost-effective approach to getting better and easier control of their finances. The specialist support is tailored to the needs of each client from an experienced team with a wide range of expertise supporting businesses across all industries. The cloud-based solution allows business owners and managers to access real-time accounting data providing valuable insight for making strategic business decisions.

For businesses who are challenged with in-house resources in their teams, the Virtual Finance Function at AAB can also offer businesses support with statutory and technical accounting, finance secondments and project support. The full range of specialists are available to support with budgets, forecasting, International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and other framework accounting.

As part of this expansion, we welcome a new Partner to the team. Stephen Smyth has joined the team as Virtual Finance Function Partner and will be leading the Virtual Finance Team across all AAB office locations in Ireland and Northern Ireland.
