The finance and accounting outsourcing category is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6% from 2023 to 2030. Companies are concerned about data security and depend more on outsourcing partners for their financial operations. In 2023, the companies emphasized a strong focus on cybersecurity protection and severe attention to data privacy guidelines. Modern security protocols are being used by outsourcing service providers to protect sensitive financial data from online attacks. The demand for data security in this category is driving the market growth.
There is a growing emphasis on regulations and compliance, which has an impact on the financial and accounting landscape. Outsourcing providers put significant focus on ensuring the competence of national and international financial regulations such as ISO 27001, Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), etc. while remaining fully compliant with compliance standards like Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), etc. Following these regulations helps companies and their outsourcing providers prevent potential fines and damage to their reputations.

As a result of exposure to a large pool of global talent, businesses will be able to acquire the necessary talent. The digitalization trend encourages diversity, innovation, and cost-effectiveness because it gives businesses access to a variety of highly qualified individuals around the world.
