Profiting from mainland ties

Accounting

The accounting industry is an evergreen one. Regardless of the economic situation, accounting professionals are always needed to help businesses operate. With the relationship between Hong Kong and the mainland getting ever closer, there are many business opportunities to be found in both geographic areas.

Accounting professionals are responsible for maintaining market stability, enhancing management standards and protecting investors’ benefits. With more and more multinational operations setting-up on the mainland, demand will remain high for accounting services such as taxation and audit.

With more domestic enterprises also planning to list in Hong Kong, accounting firms will hire people to prepare the required audit reports. The buying and merging of enterprises also requires skilled accounting professionals to help the process go smoothly. Job prospects for the industry therefore remain bright and positive.
