Can banks become the front door to accounting data?

About this episode

The episode discusses how banks are adapting to the Making Tax Digital programme and whether they can serve as a primary source for accounting data.

The government’s Making Tax Digital programme has prompted a rush of banks to release tools to handle its new quarterly filing requirement through basic accounting functionality, without the complexity of a full-scale accounting platform. Is the all-in-one ledger finally here? AccountingWEB speaks to Starling Bank’s Dan Hogan to find out.
