The pressure to comply with legislative changes rarely allows organisations to leverage the potential inherent in new technologies in the course of their mandatory introduction. Grant Thornton Digital intends to help its clients achieve real reduction in administrative burdens with the promise of smart and sustainable automation.

Grant Thornton is building its new digital business line on the the leaders of its existing and regionally strong tax and accounting business lines, as well as a newly hired technology consultant. The founders of the new Grant Thornton Digital team include József Vizer, Balázs Szentirmai and Péter Kóczé, experts in the fields of tax, accounting and technology, respectively.

Balázs: “What see is that while accounting and taxation are among the areas most affected by digital transformation these days, there are few experts in these fields with comprehensive knowledge and experience to help companies with automation, which is inherent not only with new expectations but also opportunities.”

József:  “In order to really reduce administrative burdens, a close collaboration between the tax, accounting and technology areas is needed to use the ever-expanding technological possibilities to re-think and simplify workflows, which are often becoming increasingly complex.”

Péter: “The number of tax authorities around the world adopting e-invoicing and other electronic data disclosure solutions continues to increase, presenting a significant challenge not only to taxation, but also to technology teams.”

All three of them agree that there is a significant task and responsibility today for experts and software development workshops that can help prepare both IT systems and the staff who work with them, in a professional way, to meet the new challenges. The team aims to further strengthen the consultancy community as a new player with complex tax technology competences.
