Digitization is the reality in which the modern professional accountant trains, develops and performs in the daily activity. It is an environment where understanding opportunities attached to new technologies can help the profession overcome limitations and prevent risks.
In this context, the book THE CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT AND THE DIGITAL ECONOMY, recently published by Philippe Arraou, President of the Order of Expert Accountants in France comes to „ illustrates how a profession apparently endangered by computerisation and automation […] must precisely draw upon those tools to modernise its offer today and channel human capital toward the areas in which it can offer added value..” *
Himself a professional with a vast professional experience, a landmark and referential figure for the French and for the global profession, Philippe Arraou aims to demonstrates, through this paper, that digitization can be approached in an optimist manner and that, with the support of the professional bodies, the profession does indeed possess the necessary skills in order to face the transition to new technologies.
We invite you to cover the entire book The Certified Public Accountant and the Digital Economy that can be downloaded free of charge here.
