The practice

Twenty-one years in the same place, at the same work.

OAC is the name under which Cabinet Skander Bouassida & Associés practises, in Jardin de Carthage, Tunis. Organisation, Audit, Consulting: the three words in the logo describe fairly well what the practice has done since 2005.

What we do

We keep the books of businesses established in Tunisia, audit the accounts of those required to be audited, handle their tax and payroll, and support people forming a company. The practice works for Tunisian companies and for subsidiaries of foreign groups alike.

How we do it

On a simple principle: the client speaks to somebody who knows the file. The practice has stayed at a size where that is possible, and that is a choice rather than a limit imposed on us. A file that changes hands every year loses exactly what makes an accountant valuable, which is memory.

What the practice has already carried out

Twenty-one years leave a specific trail. The practice acts as signing statutory auditor, after years spent as a manager on insurance, private equity and industrial engagements. Audit work follows the international standards of the IFAC as adopted by the Council of the Tunisian Institute of Chartered Accountants.

  • Statutory audit, as the signing auditor
  • Leading internal audit teams in industry, insurance, and at a listed company
  • Due diligence engagements, notably in insurance and retail
  • Writing procedures manuals for insurance companies and industrial groups, in Tunisia and in Mauritania
  • Full accounting outsourcing: bookkeeping, payroll, social and tax filings

The professional framework

The practice is registered with the Tunisian Institute of Chartered Accountants. That registration imposes rules on independence, competence and professional secrecy, and separates advisory work strictly from statutory audit. Those rules protect the client as much as the profession.

  • Registration with the Tunisian Institute of Chartered Accountants
  • Professional secrecy over everything entrusted to the practice
  • Independence from companies whose accounts we certify
  • Continuing education and an update at each finance act

Say the thing

A useful accountant is the one who tells you what you did not want to hear, while it can still be put right.

Keep the calendar

Tax and social deadlines are not negotiable. They sit in our calendar so that you do not have to keep them in yours.

Stay reachable

A five minute question should not wait a week. The telephone is answered by somebody who can give you an answer.

Hold the memory

We keep the history of your years and we use it. That is what makes an audit, a sale or a funding round far less painful.
