Worldwide Finance Awards 2024

Worldwide Finance Awards 2024, Acquisition International | 17 Accounting Firm of the Year 2024 - Sierra Leone & Client Service Excellence Award 2024 business built on its values, VERITAS sees that the likes of knowledge, integrity, respect, and accountability define its operation right across the board. These textbook business values lend themselves to a firm that is entirely committed to delivering professional services that are as reliable as they are exemplary, leading VERITAS to harbour the ambition of being Sierra Leone’s premier accounting firm. Yet, with more than two dozen happy clients to its name, five years of experience operating in this space, and in excess of 20 accolades having been bestowed upon it, this is something that we believe the firm has already achieved. Unwilling to just stop there however, VERITAS aims to take things that one step further, with redefining what it means to offer professional services and achieve unprecedented client satisfaction in this space being the firm’s overarching vision that it is continuing to work towards. Managing Partner Dr Claudius Williams-Tucker explains this in more detail. “To achieve our vision, we seek to deliver solutions for our clients that will enhance their business’ competitiveness, and we are committed to creating a competitive advantage through solutions that work, as well as succeeding together with our clients and becoming a partner of choice to transform our clients’ businesses and impact our community.” This statement extends to all of VERITAS’ chosen markets, with it striving to be a market leader in each of them. To further aid its clients and see that its reach and knowledge are the best that they can possibly be, VERITAS is structured into distinct international industry groups, subsections that are focused on providing detailed knowledge that is relevant to the specific sector that a client works in. The firm has a number of these major industry groups at its disposal, including the likes of government/non-profit organisations; the mining, oil, and gas industries; power and utilities; telecommunications; agriculture; healthcare; and construction. VERITAS has evolved into a structure which ensures that its size helps to give to all its clients, both large and small, a high level of service and personal contact. Regardless of which of these industries it is operating in, the professional accounting services offered by VERITAS are divided into three primary categories, audit, tax, and advisory. Beginning with its auditing, this service makes sure that all of the objectives of an audit are achieved in as stress-free a manner as possible, whilst at the same time guaranteeing that compliance is attained and international standards more than met. Furthermore, underpinning the firm’s approach to an audit is a rigorous method that focuses on businesses as a whole. In a similar vein, VERITAS’ tax practice sees the company’s tax compliance and advisory services afforded to all clients operating in the major sectors of Sierra Leone’s economy. As Claudius tells it, “we advise clients on a wide range of tax and business issues, including restructuring of transactions for maximum tax advantage.” He continues, “in today’s global economy where competition is fierce and cash flow management of paramount importance, effectively managing both the risks and opportunities surrounding your taxes is key.” Last but not least, the firm’s advisory services span 12 critical service dimensions that are equally focused on delivering tangible and measurable value for clients, with this criteria spanning everything from bookkeeping and restructuring to strategy, corporate finance, and human capital advisory services. Aside from these areas, VERITAS also delivers its signature advice in another way, this time through collaborations with Ernst & Young EY Network and Deloitte, which see support provided to these firms’ clients in Sierra Leone. A particularly bright spot in Sierra Leone’s professional services market, VERITAS Professional Services is continuing to go from strength to strength thanks to its surprise-free and customer-centric approach, employing of the right people, and the terrific value for money its services and solutions represent. For this winning combination, we celebrate the firm with this duo of well-deserved awards.
