Organised by KPMG in Bahrain’s Entrepreneurs Forum under the theme Importance of Accounting for VAT and Financial Planning, the event will also focus on the benefits of automation in accounting and financial management for SMEs and start-ups.

Harish Gopinath, partner and head of KPMG Enterprise at KPMG in Bahrain, said, “Financial management is the foundation of any successful business. In today’s fast-paced marketplace and the introduction of VAT, businesses need to be have instant access to accurate financial information at all times to meet the various compliance formalities and take the best decision at the right time.
