The accounting industry has undergone a major transformation in recent years. What was once a traditional, office-based profession is now embracing flexibility through remote and hybrid work models. With more firms turning digital, the challenge lies in maintaining efficiency, compliance, and collaboration among distributed teams.
A recent PwC survey found that 78% of accounting professionals prefer hybrid or fully remote work setups, citing better work-life balance and higher productivity. For firms adapting to this shift, XMC Asia provides strategic solutions that help accounting teams thrive in the hybrid work era — without sacrificing quality, compliance, or client satisfaction.
The Rise of Remote Work in Accounting
The pandemic accelerated remote adoption across industries, but accounting has experienced a sustained shift even after restrictions were lifted. According to IFAC (International Federation of Accountants), over 65% of firms now offer flexible work options to attract and retain top talent.
In the Philippines, this trend is even more pronounced. The Philippine Statistics Authority reported that remote-enabled industries, including accounting and finance, grew by 12% in 2024, reflecting a nationwide shift toward digital-first operations.
For global firms, remote accounting teams based in the Philippines — managed through partners like XMC Asia — provide a competitive edge by combining technical expertise with cost efficiency.
