Visma bolsters offering to self-employed entrepreneurs with investment in Accountable
Visma has invested in Belgium-based Accountable, a leader in smart accounting and tax solutions for the self-employed.
Accountable’s market-leading solutions empower self-employed entrepreneurs to effortlessly manage their finances, from bookkeeping and invoicing to banking and taxes, while fostering collaboration with accounting professionals. More than 26,000 customers across Belgium and Germany trust Accountable for expert support, AI-powered accuracy, and hassle-free tax filing.
“We are delighted to reconfirm our growth ambitions in the Belgian and German markets with this investment in Accountable, and further expand our offering of smart, intuitive business software for the self-employed. Accountable’s solutions remove many pain points and administrative burdens for this important group of entrepreneurs, freeing up valuable time for them to focus on what really moves the needle for their business”, says Merete Hverven, CEO of Visma.
A new growth phase
Accountable was founded in 2019 by Nicolas Quarré (CEO), Alexis Eggermont (CPO), Tino Keller (CMO), and Hassan Ayed (Tax advisor). The company’s strong brand awareness in Belgium and growing presence in Germany ensure that it attracts top talent with a strong drive for innovation.
“We have followed Accountable’s development with interest over several years now, and have been highly impressed both by the quality of the management team and how amazingly intuitive and easy to use their products are”, says Hverven.
“This step marks a new growth phase for Accountable. As part of the Visma family, we will be in an even stronger position to help our customers maintain financial control and compliance with relevant regulations, including the upcoming obligation of e-invoicing both in Belgium and Germany. A big advantage of joining Visma is that we keep much of our independence, while at the same time leveraging all the benefits of belonging to a large group of driven entrepreneurs with a strong, shared infrastructure”, says Nicolas Quarré, CEO of Accountable.
Accountable will continue to operate as an independent entity within the Visma family, retaining its existing team. This will enable the company to further support its customers while benefiting from Visma’s scale and expertise.
