Our Approach

Edward Christian & Co is able to provide a comprehensive range of accounting and advisory services to all of their clients, be they large or small it is important to us that every client receives the level and quality of service which is consistent with their requirements. As an initial step with any client we believe it is important to discuss expectations as to service levels as every business has differing requirements and expectations from their financial advisers. We wish to keep our services completely transparent in all aspects, including pricing, and will happily discuss costs with you once your requirements are established. 

Our aim at Edward Christian & Co is to understand your business, working alongside you in a ‘partnership style’ to deliver on-going advice as it is needed, in a timely manner – not in a panic at the last minute when the bank becomes concerned  or the IRD commences an audit! The current economic cycle presents many businesses with many opportunities and our expertise in business development and commercial arena is an asset that we can employ to assist our clients.

Edward Christian & Co wishes to have an open and transparent relationship with all of their clients, maintaining a high level of communication which does not cost the earth. We place our focus on the quality of our service and the value that it delivers.  

Typically we like to agree our fees up front, prior to the commencement of work so that there are no surprises, and we offer a range of payment options including monthly or even weekly payments – basically whatever suits you. These principals are consistent with our continuous partnership relationship philosophy as opposed to talking to you once a year and sending your annual accounts and taxation returns in the mail! We understand that cost does matter but feel that our clients will tell you that at Edward Christian & Co our cost/benefit equation is a sound proposition.

Our value proposition is proven, and you would be surprised at how little our partnership model costs compared to the value added around growth opportunities, taxation savings/compliance peace of mind, and wellbeing of your business.

We are experienced in a range of business sizes from small business to multi-million dollar enterprises. Our strength is practical commercial advice, we are not just ‘bean counters’ so whether it be taxation compliance or advice, bank funding proposals, or complex business restructures we can handle it all comfortably.
