Disa Consultores & Asesores SAS

Accounts kept current and filings on time

This is a multidisciplinary tax, accounting and finance firm in Colombia, with offices in Bogotá, Barranquilla and Villa de Leyva. It works mainly for small and medium-sized companies, which it describes as the businesses it exists to help grow, stay profitable and last. The firm's pitch is that clients should not fall behind on their books or pay penalties because of poor advice, and its stated method is orderly, scheduled work so that tax returns, financial statements and accounts are finished on the dates the client needs.

Tax planning and compliance

Tax work covers the full cycle. The firm prepares and reviews income tax returns, requests refunds of tax balances, and prepares and checks the electronic filings required by national and district authorities. It also offers tax consultancy and planning, tax audits, and representation in tax disputes. Its site describes a review of the income tax provision each October, aimed at spotting tax risks early and identifying where planning could legitimately reduce the bill.

Accounting, financial reporting and valuation

On the accounting side, the firm produces the reports a company requires and runs the accounts through the full process. It covers the implementation and ongoing application of international financial reporting standards, financial analysis, budgeting, project evaluation and business valuation. Due diligence on accounts and taxes is offered for transactions. The firm also handles corporate matters that often come with tax consequences, including mergers, spin-offs and restructuring, the incorporation of companies, the foreign exchange regime, the registration of international investments, and commercial trust and securitisation work.

Statutory audit and the wider service

The firm offers statutory audit, known in Colombia as revisoría fiscal. Its site describes its services as value-added, with the firm's work covering real sector, financial and public sector clients. The firm says that its people previously worked at some of the largest accounting firms in the world and at multinational companies, which it presents as the reason it can serve smaller businesses with that level of experience.

Systems, checks and client communication

The firm uses a document management system that shows a client the current state of its invoices and documents in real time. It says it applies artificial intelligence within that system to speed up the analysis of information and to give clients more useful findings. Its processes are reviewed by accountants at several levels of seniority, which it says keeps errors to a minimum. Clients can reach the team by phone, email, a team messaging application or video call, and each month the firm runs online training sessions on accounting, tax, legal and corporate finance topics for small businesses.
