How Specialized Accountants Help Financial Services Firms Stay Compliant and Scalable

From fintech startups to funds, accountants with deep industry experience can help you manage regulatory reporting, tax strategy, and high-stakes audits—so you can grow with confidence.

FrequentlyAsked Questions

What kind of accountant does a financial services firm need?

Firms in financial services often need accountants experienced in regulatory reporting, audits, tax strategy, and compliance—especially with SEC, FINRA, or industry-specific standards.

How much does it cost to hire an accountant in financial services?

Rates vary widely, but most financial services firms pay between $1,000 and $5,000 annually for general services, or $150–$400/hour for specialized help.

Can an accountant help with regulatory compliance?

Yes—especially those experienced in financial services. They help firms meet requirements from the SEC, IRS, FINRA, and other agencies.

What makes financial services accounting different?

It involves greater scrutiny, strict reporting timelines, and industry-specific regulations. Accountants must understand multi-entity setups, asset valuations, and complex tax rules.

Do I need a CPA for my financial services company?

For most regulated financial firms, a CPA is preferred (and often required) for audit and attestation services. For bookkeeping and general tax help, a non-CPA may suffice.
