As part of the Taxation module of the Economist – Accounting module study programme, we hosted Ms Anica Horvat, director of the First d.o.o. accounting service in Murska Sobota, one of the largest accounting services in Slovenia.
Anica Horvat began her guest lecture with an in-depth presentation of the company FIRST d.o.o, which ranks amongst one of the most prestigious accounting services in Slovenia. In doing so, she highlighted the rich history of the company, which during this time has become synonymous with professionalism, reliability and innovation in the field of accounting.
Despite its already long tradition, the company FIRST still actively adapts and follows contemporary trends and technological progress. Horvat emphasised that the key to success lies in retaining young staff, as they bring fresh ideas, energy and perspectives on solving the challenges that the accounting field faces in today's rapidly changing environment.
A special emphasis of the lecture was dedicated to the diversity of an accountant's work tasks. The focus of the lecture shifted to the numerous areas that accountants encounter in their daily work, from maintaining financial records, reporting and tax advisory to analysing business results and financial planning. The guest lecturer also highlighted the need for rapid and practical learning, which is of key importance for successfully managing complex accounting tasks and for adapting to new challenges brought about by modern business operations.
The meeting was extremely educational and inspiring, as Ms Horvat, with her professional knowledge, experience and clear vision of the future of accounting, left a strong impression on the students and participants and encouraged them to continue exploring and developing in this dynamic industry.
