Summary/Abstract: The growing importance of services is seen in the modern world as a requirement for civilisation’s proper economic development. Services began to expand in the mid-twentieth century, and have gone on to become a leading economic sphere in highly developed countries. Increased efficiency often has a decisive impact on the productivity and competitiveness of economies and GDP. At the same time, it has started a constant evolution of the requirements, resulting in the quick development of specialist companies that meet market expectations. Global transactions require from market participants up-to-date knowledge of international regulations. Continuous training of employees is not only expensive but also does not allow operators to focus on their core business, which is why they come more and more to rely on the purchase of professional services that meet their expectations. The transnational movement of services is therefore the result of the use of the latest assistive technology and knowledge of the global economy. It is not only their reach and accessibility that accounts for the popularity of services, but also the opportunity to acquire specialised services. One result of this popularity has been the development of financial and accounting outsourcing.
