ASSOCIATION OF FINNISH ACCOUNTING
FIRMS PROMOTES THE USE OF
STRUCTURED DATA
Vuokko M辰kinen
Association of Finnish Accounting Firms,
Chairwoman of the Board
Future of the accounting field
Digitalisation and automation will reduce routine work
 The change is welcome, manual work in entering data is unnecessary and
error-prone
 BUT what kind of digitalisation and automation do we want?
We will need accounting experts also in the future
 We need real-time, comprehensive information in order to produce useful
information to our customers
The accounting sector can influence the future of the field
by promoting the development of digital tools and services
Key challenges of financial management in SMEs
- among the accounting sectors customers
 Information needed to manage companies day-to-day operations is not available
(financial management information is narrow and based on statutory accounting)
 Accounting information is generated with a delay; usually 1.5 months old (e.g.
VAT reporting)
 Generating financial management information is time-consuming and still
requires a lot of manual work
 Most of the software used in the field are outdated and clumsy
 Obtaining the figures and forecasts needed for SME financing involves time-
consuming manual work, which costs a lot to financiers and investors
3
The services produced must meet
the needs of our customers.
Customers needs can be addressed with the help of
structured data
 With structured data, we can decrease the amount of data entry work and the
subsequent human errors
 Structured data are transferred from one system to another in a format that can
immediately be utilised without manual work
 Structured data can be analysed by making use of the entire data content
Structured data allows the development of entirely
new services and quick reaction to
situation-specific customer needs.

which aims at building a growth environment for digital
business.
The goal of the package of measures, which focuses on the
utilisation of large information materials and MyData, is to
create internationally the best preconditions in Finland for
business based on data use and for the growth of the field.
