Businesses are continuously looking for ways to simplify procedures and enhance operations in the connected world of today. One area that has seen significant growth in outsourcing is accounting services. While India has long been recognized as a hub for IT outsourcing, South Africa has now emerged as the global center for outsourced accounting.
