Editor’s Note:

In recent years, natural disasters such as drought and waterlogging occur frequently. Climate warming has triggered various disasters that affect existence, which has brought unprecedented challenges to grain production, ecological environment and world peace maintenance. “Fen long” technology, the new method of farming invented by Wei Benhui, the Chinese inventor, can help to solve these problems in the world to a certain extent and make the human future better by multiple using “5 kinds of resources”, soil and its cubic natural rainfall, oxygen, temperature, humidity and solar energy.

In August 2021, the yield of highland barley in the saline-alkali soil, which was transformed by “smash-ridging” technology in Zangzhong Village, Zhaqi Town, Zhanang County, Shannan City, Tibet, China, the roof of the world, increased by 38.67%. The highland barley yield of smash ridging sand soil farmland in Kemai Community, Changzhu Township, Naidong District, increased by 1121.73 kg, with 25.43% of increase range, and the straw yield also increased by more than 20%. Peng Xinhua, the researcher of Nanjing Institute of Soil Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences has implemented smash-ridging sweet potato experiment in Jiangxi Province, and the result was that the yield increased by 89% to 117%. The maximum production increase of wheat of heavy coast saline-alkali soil in Dongying City, Shandong Province was 154.22% after being transformed by “smash-ridging” technology. The production increase of cotton of heavy saline-alkali soil in Yuli County, Xinjiang Autonomous Region was yet 81.17% in the fourth year after being transformed by “smash-ridging” technology. Over the past decade, “smash-ridging” technology was applied to nearly 50 kinds of crops such as rice, corn and wheat in 28 provinces such as Guangxi and Xinjiang, and no more rich water, pesticide or other production costs was required while the production increase was generally 10% to 50%, the quality was improved by 5% and the increase production in saline-alkali soil was 20% to 100% after transformation. Experts estimated that, the natural disaster such as waterlogging, drought, high temperature and low temperature may be reduced by more than 20%, and soil environment improvement,and crop biomass increase will reduce carbon by more than 10% and increase  ground air humidity by 10%.

Invented by Wei Benhui from Guangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences, “smash-ridging” technology is a major new method of farming, which can realize a new round of production increase, quality improvement, water conservation, disaster reduction, carbon reduction and sustainable development of agriculture and contribute to widen the space of human existence and development.

In March 2021, “smash-ridging” technology was shown on the world’s No. 1 screen in Times Square, which stated that the smash ridging agricultural machinery and smash ridging farming that would not mess the soil layers for ultra deep ploughing had broken through worldwide problems such as “physical” production increase of agriculture and physical transformation of saline-alkali soil. “Smash-ridging” technology which has shocked the world is common technology, common welfare and common wealth of all mankind.

The advert of “smash-ridging” technology marks that the world has ushered in a very rare new agricultural revolution. The technology is simple, widely applied and sustainable for hundreds of years. It has realized increase of grain production and decrease of disaster to benefit human being.

1. Creating subversive fifth farming mode, which is worldwide used

“Smash-ridging” technology is named after vertical burying, high-speed rotary-cut smash soil, ridge and suspend by using spiral, hollow and other “drill” farming tools invented by Wei Benhui, instead of the “plow” which has been used for 5,500 years. “Smash-ridging” technology has become the fifth efficient farming mode after slash-and-burn cultivation, man power, animal power and tractor ploughing in the history of human farming. “Smash-ridging” technology structured “smash-ridging agriculture” technology system that matches smash-ridging agricultural machinery, smash-ridging farming and smash-ridging cultivation and overturned traditional farming way and agricultural production technical philosophy by using the scientific concept of “ultra deep ploughing and deep loosening the soil without messing the soil layers”. The worldwide universal technology expands the space for human existence and development, and its scientific connotation and characteristics are as below:

First of all, fully excavate natural resource utilization that the earth feeds human being. With 5 kinds of natural resources, soil, the grain producer which the mankind survives on, natural rainfall, oxygen, temperature and humidity and solar energy, once more multiple positive utilization can be realized on the basis of existent farming and agricultural utilization to promote a new round of agricultural production increase, quality improvement, water conservation, disaster reduction, carbon drop and sustainable development.

Secondly, trigger deepening utilization of the surface soil of earth with a light force. Loosened soil increases several times over., and most of soil is granular, and granular structure surface is smooth. Unit weight decreases by 10% to 20%, and available nutrient increases by 10% to 30%. Basic fertility improves by 10% to 30%, and applying quantity of chemical fertilizer for planting crop can reduce by more than 10%.

Thirdly, create cultivated land reservoir with loosened soil and expanded volume. Natural rainfall reserves approximately double, which provides conditions for human being to utilize rainwater and snow water again. Soil porosity enlarges approximately and oxygen increase approximately by one time. Soil microbial community and quantity increase by almost multiple times.

Fourthly, create soil ecological environment that is suitable for crop growth. Smash ridging cultivation requires soil ecological environment with balanced water, fertilizer, gas and heat. The crop takes roots in the earlier stage, strengthens in the medium stage and becomes powerful in the later stage. It features production increase and quality improvement with resistant to drought, high and low temperature. The root system is particularly developed with fibrous root increasing and activity strengthening. The photosynthetic efficiency improves by 10% to 30%, and the stress resistance such as drought and high and low temperature improves by approximately 20%, while  biomass increases by 20% to 30%.

Fifthly, create suitable environment for crops based on ecological conditions in which high agricultural yield is still available and consumption of agricultural “chemicals” is achievable even the consumption of fertilizer and pesticide can be reduced by more than 10% and some plastic mulch can be reduced. Some of polluted soil can be “purified itself”. For example, reduction of heavy metal pollution (reduction of cadmium content of rice) is a physical effect that other chemical means can hardly match.

Sixthly, realize no ecological area or crop variety limit. Almost all crops and some traditional Chinese medicinal materials in rice field, dry land and even saline-alkali soil can be applied to from Hainan Province at low latitude (18°N) to Xinjiang and Heilongjiang at high latitude (45° to 50°N), from Beihai of Guangxi at low altitude (10 to 15 metres) to Shigatse of Tibet at high altitude (over 4,000 metres), which indicates that there is no obvious limit on ecological area or crop variety, and it can be generally used in the world.

2. Application in China’s cultivated land and saline-alkali soil in 2021, with outstanding results

Test on smash ridging has been implemented in many places of China, and the result showed that comparing with traditional cultivation, the yield of rice increased by 15.5%, that of corn increased by 12.26%, and that of peanut increased by 8.05% with no fertilization.

“Smash ridging” technology has been applied to 50 kinds of crops such as rice, corn, wheat and potato in 28 provinces all over China for more than a decade, and production increase achieved 10% to 50%, and production increase in saline-alkali soil after being transformed achieved 20% to 100% with no increasing fertilization or irrigation volume. There are many cases of production increase in various places. In Yuanjiang City of Hunan Province, yield of smash ridging rice increased by 26.5% in that year, and it still increased by 12% in the fourth year after the first smash ridging cultivation. The yield of smash ridging wheat in Fuping, Shaanxi Province increased by 29.9%, and that of the second crop of corn increased by 34.89%. The average production increase of rained farming sugarcane was 32.5%.

In 2021, the cases of production increase with “smash-ridging” technology occurred frequently, and the results are outstanding.

Firstly, rice production continuously increases with “smash-ridging” technology. Yaoguao Town, Longhui County, Hunan Province used to be the breakthrough point where Academician Yuan Longping’s hybrid rice yields reached 900 kg per mu. In April 2014, “smash-ridging” cultivation was implemented, and the yield of hybrid rice increased by 25% in that year. It has been the 8th year since “smash ridging” technology was implemented, but the yield of hybrid rice is expected to increase by 10% or so. The yield of second crop of rice after rice smash ridging was implemented in Yongan Village, Shifu Town, Nanning City, Guangxi Autonomous Region increased by 9.5%.

Secondly, smash ridging water conservation and continuous high yield lasted for many years. In 2021, the third year after “smash-ridging” technology was implemented in Yanshan, Cangzhou City, Hebei Province, the yield of wheat with water conservation increased by 18% with irrigation reduction by nearly 2,000 cubic metres per hectare. In 2021, the sixth year after “smash-ridging” technology was implemented in Fanjiazhai Village, Guyang Town, Lankao County, Henan Province, the yield of wheat increased by 10.3%.

Thirdly, “smash-ridging” agriculture and saline alkali soil transformation in highland region. As previous statement, the yield of highland barley of saline alkali soil in Tibet, the roof of the world, increased by 38.67%, that of highland barley of sand soil cultivated land with “smash-ridging” technology increased by 25.43%, that of highland barley straw increased by more than 20%, which can effectively solve the problem of lack of grain and feed in Tibet.

Fourthly, the history of high yield of sugarcane in a large area with “smash-ridging” technology was made. “Smash-ridging” technology “145” demonstration base for planting sugarcane was built in Guangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences. On March 6, 2021, upon experts’ acceptance, it increased by 38.3% than conventional cultivation. “Smash-ridging” technology “145” demonstration in Binyang of Guangxi, is expected to make history of green ecological high yield of sugarcane in a large area with entire mechanization to bring a sample for China’s and the world’s sugarcane planting technology.

3. Increasing grain yield and decreasing disaster by conforming to the nature, and all the mankind getting a better future

The best living quality and survival and development environment with abundant and tasteful food, fresh air and visible blue sky and cloud are mankind’s good wishes.

The earth is endowed with 5 kinds of inexhaustible natural resources, soil and its stereoscopic spatial natural rainfall, oxygen, temperature and humidity and solar energy. Soil is the “producer” of grain and other agricultural products the human being survives on and the “regulator” of natural environment to relieve drought, waterlogging and other natural disasters. In order to realize the above dreams, human being has to profoundly comprehend and properly utilize the “5 kinds of natural resources”, which is the fundamental obedience to the rules of resource utilization for mankind’s survival. For a country, the more proper utilization rate of “the 5 kinds of natural resources” of the stereoscopic space, the more secure grain and ecology in the country, the more fortunate of national life, which is also in this way for all the world and all the mankind.

The core of “smash-ridging” technology is to multiply sound utilization of the above “5 kinds of natural resources”. Its pioneering scientific contribution is based on the principle of “ultra deep cultivation and deep loosening (by utilizing the soil resources of plough sole which human being has not utilized yet), loosening soil at original site, granular soil, once off completion of soil preparation., and no tillage or light tillage for conservation tillage for years”. Meanwhile, “smash-ridging” technology is almost applied to various land resources including cultivated land and saline alkali soil so that agricultural available resources have expanded substantially. Furthermore, yield increase can be maintained with properly reducing fertilization. Additionally, it is easy to popularize and apply, and it is merely to replace tractor “plough” cultivation with smash ridging “drill”. Rice field is 25 cm deep, and dry land is 35 cm deep, and saline alkali soil is 40 cm deep. Expected effect is achievable with no excessive input or technical instruction required.

Wei Benhui said that invention of spiral and hollow “drill” tillage implements would certainly bring a major change of tillage implements and modernization of series products of smash ridging agricultural machinery equipment. The world will usher in great new times of “smash-ridging agriculture”.

According to expert’s estimates, if 1 billion mu of farmland and 300 million saline alkali land are cultivated in China, 130 billion kg of grain can be increased every year and 300 to 400 million more people can be fed. If land “smash-ridging” technology is implemented in 50% of farmland in the world, yield of grain can be increased and more people can be fed.

With “smash-ridging” technology, 40 to 50 cubic metres of natural rainfall reserve can be increased for cultivated land per mu, and drought, waterlogging and other disasters can be reduced. Recently, heavy waterlogging occurred in Henan Province. Because light tillage is carried out in most of cultivate land (most of loosened soil of plough layer is 12 to 15 cm), the soil of button layer is compacted and moves upward due to rolling by tractor wheels for years. Adding the road extension and ground hardening in the villages, there is no more place for water reservation. If “smash ridging” technology is implemented in half of cultivated land, such affect of rainstorm can be reduced greatly. Also, with improving smash ridging soil environment and significant increasing crop biomass, the goals including carbon reduction, peak carbon dioxide emissions and carbon neutralization can be achieved early, and global warming can be relived greatly.

“Smash-ridging agriculture” and its entire production technology system invented and created by Wei Benhui have surpassed the existent agricultural production mode and have been affirmed and supported by Yuan Longping and other more than 10 Chinese academicians. The technology system has been practiced to almost all crop varieties from low latitude to high latitude and from low altitude to high altitude. It can be popularized globally and is expected to be a new mainstream technology in the world to lead the trend of agricultural cultivation development. The future will be better for all mankind.

Press Release

Mandela Digital Extends Early Access Programme to 11 February 2027 Following Strong Response

Published

2 hours ago

on

September 23, 2026

By

Laramie, USA, September 23rd, 2026, FinanceWire

The new closing date honours the anniversary of Nelson Mandela’s release from prison and reinforces the initiative’s commitment to financial empowerment and inclusion.

Mandela Digital today announced that the Application Stage of the Mandela Dollar (MUSD) Early Access Programme will be extended until 11 February 2027, following a strong response to the initiative.

The extension gives institutional partners additional time to complete registration of their interest and help build financial infrastructure that empowers underserved communities and broadens participation in the financial system.

The Programme opened on Nelson Mandela International Day, 18 July 2026, with an initial application window of 67 days, honouring Mandela’s 67 years of service to humanity. The new closing date connects that tribute to another defining moment in his legacy: his release from prison.

From The Promise of Freedom to the Power of Participation

On 11 February 1990, Nelson Mandela walked free from Victor Verster Prison after more than 27 years of imprisonment. His release marked a historic turning point in the struggle against apartheid and became a symbol of hope and possibility around the world. 11 February 2027 will mark the 37th anniversary of that moment.

For Mandela Digital, marking this anniversary is an opportunity to connect remembrance with purpose. The initiative seeks to carry the principle of inclusion into financial life: helping more people access the tools to receive payments, support their families, build businesses and exercise greater control over their financial futures.

The original 67-day window honoured a lifetime of service. The extension reaffirms a commitment to turning that inspiration into practical financial empowerment.

Mustaq Patel, Chairman, Mandela Digital, said:

“The tremendous response to our Early Access Programme reinforces our conviction that financial empowerment and inclusion must be at the centre of the next generation of financial infrastructure.

Nelson Mandela’s release on 11 February 1990 opened a new chapter of possibility. We have chosen this anniversary to reaffirm our own purpose: helping people who have been excluded from the financial system gain access to the tools and opportunities to participate in it.

Financial inclusion opens the door. Financial empowerment gives people the ability to move forward to support a family, grow a business, and take greater control of their future.

By extending the Early Access Programme to 11 February 2027, we are giving more prospective partners time to join that mission. Our ambition is not simply to introduce a digital currency. It is to help widen financial access and make that access meaningful in people’s everyday lives.”

Zaziwe Dlamini-Manaway, Director, Mandela Digital and granddaughter of Nelson Mandela, added:

“For our family, 11 February holds a deeply personal significance. My grandfather’s release from prison marked a new chapter for our family and a moment of hope for millions around the world. As his granddaughter, I believe that honouring his legacy means not only remembering what he stood for but finding meaningful ways to widen opportunity for others.

Financial inclusion and empowerment are central to the work we want Mandela Digital to do. Access to financial services should not be a privilege reserved for a few. People need the tools, knowledge and confidence to support their families, build livelihoods and take greater control of their financial futures.

Our original 67-day invitation honoured my grandfather’s lifetime of service. Extending the Programme to 11 February 2027 connects that spirit of service with the anniversary of his freedom. It is an invitation to partners who share our commitment to making financial participation more accessible and to ensuring that technology opens doors for communities too often left behind.

Building Infrastructure for Financial Empowerment

Mandela Digital is developing MUSD as a proposed digital currency designed for 1:1 US-dollar backing, with an institutional approach to financial infrastructure. The initiative aims to expand access to dollar-denominated financial services, remittances and digital payments across the Global South and diaspora communities, with a focus on people underserved by existing systems.

Its intended commitment to education, skills development and poverty alleviation includes directing a portion of future MUSD protocol revenue towards these causes.

For Mandela Digital, financial empowerment means more than access alone. It means helping people develop the knowledge, confidence and capabilities to use financial tools effectively, make informed decisions and participate more fully in economic life.

An Extended Invitation to Participate

The extended Application Stage provides additional time for eligible financial institutions, payment businesses, professional liquidity providers and institutional technology partners to register interest in the Programme. Engagement is intended to support institutional onboarding, product development and commercial partnership discussions, subject to compliance checks and applicable requirements in each jurisdiction.

The Revised Application Deadline is 11 February 2027.

Interested organisations are invited to register through Mandela Digital’s official website, www.mandela.digital, using an official business email address.

About Mandela Digital

Mandela Digital is a US-headquartered joint venture aiming to develop the Mandela Dollar and expand financial inclusion across the Global South and global diaspora.

Important Programme Information

The Early Access Programme is a registration of interest only. Applications do not confer token rights, allocations or priority access. Participation and future deployment remain subject to regulatory approvals, compliance checks and technical validation. The extension does not authorise a token sale or constitute an investment offer. The revised closing date is an application deadline, not a public-launch date.

ArcPoint Expands Globally with Institutional Intelligence Platform for Modern Investors

Published

2 hours ago

on

September 23, 2026

By

London, United Kingdom, September 23rd, 2026, FinanceWire

Fast-growing financial technology company combines AI-powered market intelligence, institutional-grade tools, and human expertise within a platform designed to bring sophisticated technology closer to individual investors.

ArcPoint, a fast-growing international financial technology company, today announced the continued expansion of its Institutional Intelligence Platform for Modern Investors, marking a significant stage in the company’s international growth and technology strategy.

With a growing presence spanning London, Ottawa, Zürich and Cape Town, ArcPoint is developing a global financial technology ecosystem around a simple idea: sophisticated market intelligence and advanced analytical technology should not be limited to large institutions.

For decades, some of the most powerful analytical capabilities in financial markets have been concentrated within institutional environments backed by specialist teams, extensive data and sophisticated infrastructure.

ArcPoint believes technology, and particularly artificial intelligence, is changing that equation.

Through www.arcp.vc, ArcPoint is bringing advanced analytics, AI-powered market intelligence, responsive technology and specialist support together within one connected environment built for the modern investor.

Institutional Intelligence, Built for the Individual

Today’s individual investor operates in the same fast moving global markets as professional institutions.

Economic announcements, volatility, corporate developments, changing sentiment and movements across global markets generate enormous amounts of information every day. The challenge is no longer simply accessing information. It is processing it quickly enough to understand what matters.

ArcPoint is building its technology around that challenge.

Its platform is designed to process large volumes of market information continuously, analyze changing conditions and organize complex data into more structured intelligence.

Instead of requiring investors to manually monitor endless streams of information, ArcPoint’s technology is designed to perform much of that analytical work in the background.

The technology does the heavy lifting. The intelligence is delivered to the investor.

AI That Keeps Working

Artificial intelligence sits at the center of ArcPoint’s technology strategy.

ArcPoint’s AI acts as an always-on intelligence layer designed to analyze large quantities of market information, identify patterns, monitor changing conditions and process complex data at a speed and scale that would be difficult to reproduce manually.

Markets do not stop when an investor steps away from a screen, and ArcPoint believes the technology supporting investors should be capable of keeping pace.

While markets move, ArcPoint’s technology keeps working.

For individual investors, this means gaining access to increasingly sophisticated analytical capabilities without requiring the infrastructure or resources traditionally associated with an institutional research environment.

The objective is straightforward: reduce complexity and allow technology to handle more of the analytical workload.

Investors can learn more about the ArcPoint platform and its developing technology ecosystem at www.arcp.vc.

Built for Speed

Powerful intelligence needs powerful infrastructure behind it.

Speed and responsiveness are therefore central to the ArcPoint platform experience. The company is developing a streamlined technology environment intended to provide fast access to market information, analytical resources and platform functionality.

ArcPoint believes institutional intelligence is not simply about presenting more data. It is about combining information, processing power, speed and usability so that sophisticated technology becomes genuinely useful.

As ArcPoint grows internationally, the company is continuing to invest in the scalability and performance of its platform, supporting a broader user base and an expanding range of technological capabilities.

Powerful Technology Meets Human Expertise

While AI performs much of the analytical heavy lifting, ArcPoint continues to place significant importance on human expertise.

Technology can monitor information continuously, process large amounts of data and identify patterns. Human specialists provide another layer of context, education and support.

ArcPoint combines the two within the same ecosystem.

The result is an environment where investors are not simply handed sophisticated technology and expected to understand everything themselves. The platform performs much of the analytical work while ArcPoint’s specialist infrastructure provides an additional human layer.

This combination of institutional intelligence, advanced technology and human expertise sits at the center of the ArcPoint model.

Closing the Institutional Technology Gap

ArcPoint sees artificial intelligence as part of a much broader transformation in financial technology.

Capabilities that once required extensive institutional infrastructure can increasingly be delivered through modern digital platforms.

Computing power has increased. Data moves faster. Analytical systems are becoming more sophisticated. Artificial intelligence can process information continuously and at extraordinary scale.

ArcPoint’s ambition is to bring more of those capabilities within reach of the individual investor.

Institutional capability. Individual access. AI doing the heavy lifting.

The company believes this shift will play an important role in the next generation of financial technology.

From London to Ottawa, Zürich and Cape Town

ArcPoint’s technology development is being accompanied by international expansion.

The company now maintains a presence across London, Ottawa, Zürich and Cape Town, establishing a growing footprint across Europe, North America and Africa.

These locations form the foundation of an increasingly international organization and reflect ArcPoint’s ambition to build technology for a market that no longer operates within traditional geographic boundaries.

As its footprint grows, ArcPoint plans to continue investing in artificial intelligence, analytical infrastructure, platform performance and its overall technology ecosystem.

More information about ArcPoint’s platform and international presence is available at www.arcp.vc.

About ArcPoint

ArcPoint is a fast-growing international financial technology company developing an Institutional Intelligence Platform for Modern Investors.

Ledger BPO Details Dedicated Accounting and Billing Teams as Accountant Shortage Deepens

Published

5 hours ago

on

September 23, 2026

By

LedgerBPO, the accounting and billing division of SS Support Network LLC, has published its full service catalogue, offering small businesses and accounting firms a named remote accountant for bookkeeping, invoicing, receivables, reconciliation and month-end close across four countries.

Vancouver, WA, United States, 23rd Sep 2026, Grand Newswire – Ledger BPO, the accounting and billing division of SS Support Network LLC, has set out the full scope of its services for small and mid-sized businesses and accounting firms, one week after the brand’s public launch. The catalogue, published at https://ledgerbpo.com/services/, runs to more than eighty remote functions grouped into ten areas, from monthly bookkeeping and invoicing to reconciliation, month-end close, payroll preparation support and a billing help desk staffed by trained agents.

The timing is deliberate. Industry data published this year puts the number of accountants and auditors who have left the profession since its 2019 peak at more than 300,000, with roughly half of finance leaders reporting that accounting vacancies now take sixty days or longer to fill. Professional-body surveys indicate about a quarter of accounting firms already outsource some portion of their bookkeeping or accounting work, and that share is rising as small and rural firms report the greatest difficulty hiring. For business owners, the shortage shows up as books that fall behind, invoices that go out late and receivables that age past ninety days while the owner looks for help that is not there.

LedgerBPO’s answer is a staffing model rather than a software product. Every client is assigned a named accountant who works the file each month, a trained substitute who knows the file well enough to step in, and a team lead who reviews the work before it reaches the client. The team operates inside the client’s existing accounting platform during the client’s business hours, whether those hours are in New York, London, Toronto or Sydney.

“The businesses we talk to are not asking for another app. They are asking for a person who will actually own the ledger,” said Nimra Khalid, chief operating officer of SS Support Network. “So that is what we built. One accountant who knows the file, one backup who can cover it, one reviewer who checks it. It is a simple structure, and simple structures are the ones that survive a busy month.”

At the centre of the catalogue is bookkeeping in its everyday and emergency forms: monthly and weekly transaction processing, catch-up work for businesses months or years behind, clean-up and rebuild for books that no longer reconcile, chart-of-accounts design and software setup or migration. The division also handles multi-entity groups, inventory and cost of goods, and fixed-asset registers.

Where LedgerBPO departs from most bookkeeping providers is in what it calls order-to-cash. The division’s teams prepare and send invoices, run recurring and subscription billing, manage the receivables ledger, apply incoming payments to open invoices and follow up on late accounts by email, text and telephone under the client’s own brand. A dedicated billing help desk answers customer questions about invoices and sets up payment arrangements. Detail on the receivables service is published at https://ledgerbpo.com/services/accounts-receivable/. The division does not operate as a collection agency and does not hold or move client funds; every payment is approved and released by the client.

On the payables side, LedgerBPO captures and codes supplier invoices, performs three-way matching, routes approvals, prepares payment runs and reconciles vendor statements. Its reconciliation and close service covers bank, card and payment-processor accounts, balance-sheet schedules, payroll and sales-tax liabilities, intercompany balances and loans, culminating in a month-end close package and a year-end handoff prepared for the client’s tax preparer. Reporting services extend to monthly financial statements, cash-flow forecasting, budgeting and dashboards, with a remote controller review available for businesses that want a senior set of eyes on the numbers without a full-time hire.

The catalogue is built country by country rather than translated from a single template. For United Kingdom clients, VAT workings are prepared in software compatible with Making Tax Digital, whose income-tax phase began for higher-earning sole traders and landlords in April 2026. Australian clients receive Business Activity Statement workpapers prepared for lodgement by their own registered agent, alongside payroll and superannuation reconciliation for the Payday Super rules that took effect in July 2026. Canadian clients receive GST, HST, PST and QST workings by province and a month-end package prepared for their chartered professional accountant. In the United States, tax workpapers for accounting-firm clients are prepared only under the firm’s review and signature and with written taxpayer consent, as Internal Revenue Code Section 7216 requires.

For accounting, CPA, EA and bookkeeping practices, the division offers dedicated accountants working in the firm’s own practice-management and tax software, white-label bookkeeping delivered under the firm’s brand, tax-season surge capacity, month-end close support and practice administration such as client onboarding and document chasing. Each file passes through a two-tier review before a partner sees it. The programme for firms is described at https://ledgerbpo.com/for-accounting-firms/.

The division’s call-centre heritage supplies a further group of services rarely found alongside bookkeeping: inbound billing support, outbound payment reminders, insurer and payer follow-up calls for healthcare practices, patient billing calls, vendor inquiry lines and after-hours coverage. Healthcare and specialised billing, including medical billing and revenue-cycle management, home-care and non-emergency medical transportation billing, property-management accounting and marketplace accounting for online sellers, rounds out the catalogue.

“We spent six years learning that the back office is one system. The books do not close if the invoices were never sent, and the invoices do not get paid if nobody follows up,” said Shahzaib Shah, founder and chief executive of SS Support Network. “LedgerBPO exists so a business can hand that whole system to one team and get it back reconciled. That is the promise: books closed, invoices paid, every month.”

Security controls are documented at https://ledgerbpo.com/security/ and include least-privilege access to client systems, read-only bank connections where a platform permits them, multi-factor authentication on every account, background-checked employees, a signed confidentiality agreement for each client, managed devices with no local storage and a written incident-response plan.
