Bankeo and the CDEC of Quebec announce a partnership to facilitate access to accounting services for social and solidarity economy enterprises

Quebec City, April 18, 2023 – Bankeo and the Quebec City CDEC are proud to announce their partnership to make the Bankeo.ca platform available to CDEC members and social economy enterprises. This user-friendly and free web platform allows businesses of all types to find their ideal accountant.

Bankeo, a small company founded in Quebec City, aims to revolutionize the world of finance by deploying a platform that strengthens the relationship between entrepreneurs and managers and their ideal accountant. Bankeo.fr brings together a vast network of available and verified accounting specialists. More than just a web platform, it's a networking tool that offers a personalized approach based on understanding the needs of organizations and entrepreneurs. This approach makes Bankeo a valuable ally for businesses and organizations looking to find the right partner to facilitate their financial management and maximize their impact.

“In the current context, a growing number of small businesses, particularly NGOs, are struggling to find available and competent accounting specialists who truly understand their realities. The partnership established with Bankeo allows the CDEC to provide a concrete response to this issue, which is frequently raised by the organizations we support. This partnership will help members and social entrepreneurs ensure sound financial management of their organizations so they can better focus on their mission and maximize their impact potential,” emphasized Isabelle Gilbert, Executive Director of the CDEC of Quebec City.

“Finances can be a source of anxiety and time-consuming if organizations don’t work with the right partners. We firmly believe that a project can only reach its full potential with the right accountant by its side. Our collaboration with the CDEC aims precisely at this objective. Local NGOs, cooperatives, and small businesses have specific financial management needs. By giving them access to the right resources, we contribute to supporting their development and having a positive impact on our community. It was therefore a natural fit for Bankeo to participate in what the CDEC aptly calls ‘The Factory of Collective Impacts,’” stated Arnaud Bertrand, CEO of Bankeo.
