About Anlo Financial Solutions South Africa
Going strong since 2010!
It’s hard to believe that we started Anlo years ago here in South Africa, and yet here we are, with more people and experience than we could have imagined and still growing. In the span of those years we have not only grown our original business, but spread our wings, almost literally, and established Anlo in the United Kingdom.
The goals that underpinned our first baby steps into building our own business all those years ago have been refined but are still fundamentally the same: we believe that accountants should not be there simply to audit and sign off year end reports, they should be part of your business life, helping you understand your finances, offering advice, making life easier when it’s difficult and nurturing your business to ever greater success.
Esmerelda and her team continue to be the heart of Anlo in South Africa. Esi has been with Anlo since 2015 and is the lynchpin of our South African business.
Side by side with Annja, she is leading the constant changes and improvements that keep Anlo ahead of the game.
Who We Help
While we handle all aspects of accountancy and bookkeeping, we have specialist experience in the following areas:
The technological changes we have seen and had to get our heads around in this period are enormous.
If you had told us when we started that it would be possible to input expenses in real time through our phones and have them properly assigned and categorised, we would have probably laughed. Had you then said that we would be able to help our clients monitor their finances in real-time, 24/7 from anywhere in the world, we might have thought you were slightly unhinged, and yet, that is exactly where we are. We have embraced Cloud computing, in our own business and for our clients. It gives unparallel insight and control over business finances making it easier than ever to make informed decisions about the direction of a business.
Tax regimes have changed, SARS is leaning increasingly towards online submission and away from the ‘traditional’ ways of doing things. We have all had to learn to cope with these changes, and we work very hard to ensure that all of our clients are as well informed and as well-equipped as we can make them to cope with all of these changes. Like many newer businesses we have spent time improving not only our websites but on our use of newsletters and social media to communicate with our clients. We have tried to make these communications useful and personal but also entertaining. These are excellent tools to communicate during periods of rapid change, and that last ten years have certainly not lacked that
As we start our eleventh year in business we are constantly looking for new ways to meet the needs of our clients, whether that is through new technology or simply by being accountants who are not satisfied to lurk in the background! Our clients are our partners, if you need an accountant you can lean on, contact us.
