Demands on international corpo-
rations are constantly increasing.
Cost efficiency and leaner processes
are ever more necessary to compete
successfully.
Optimising financial and account-
ing processes creates opportunities
far beyond lower costs. Additional
outcomes include better quality,
transparency, and speed of process-
es and routines.
This is why EFF was founded. EFF
is short for European Finance Func-
tion. It is a finance and accounting
outsourcing unit based in Poznan,
Poland.
SCANDINAVIAN HERITAGE
EFF was established and is owned
by the Swedish stock-listed Duni
Group. Duni has subsidiaries in
about 15 countries around the
world. Accounting and finance for

its excellent location in central Europe.
most of Duni’s entities have been
moved to EFF.
SUBSTANTIAL COST-SAVINGS
EFF turned out a success for Duni,
surpassing expectations by achiev-
ing more than 50% cost reduction
and improving quality within
finance and accounting as well as in
other functions.
EXTERNAL CUSTOMERS
Today EFF successfully helps
several medium-sized corporations
in Europe and elsewhere to reach
their targets.
FLEXIBLE SET-UP
EFF offers tailored services for each
client and project. We fill the gap
between traditional local account-
ants and large-scale outsourcing
providers.

transparency at many levels.

tence and experience to theirs and
multiply the total benefits. We help
our clients realize new business
