Beyond the numbers
The Ken Yao Company offers a different approach to chartered accountancy.
We are a solutions-driven group, focused on providing insight and value beyond just the immediate accounting needs. We believe that knowing our clients better allows us to offer that better service - service beyond the numbers.
For that reason, we schedule regular check-ins, to plan, to review opportunities and threats, and to provide ongoing advice as the financial picture evolves

About the
Ken Yao Company
Our company was launched in Victoria, BC in 2014. We come from the world of mainstream chartered accountancy, but we see a need for a new approach to the value a CPA can bring. We embrace a spirit of differentiation in everything we do.
How We Work
Comprehend
We study your current business or personal situation and ask the important questions. This gives us the deep understanding we require.
Execute
We walk you through the plan and solicit your feedback. Once we are all on the same page, we put the plan into action and monitor the roll-out.
Analyze
We do our research, investigate the options, break big issues down into more manageable sizes and then prepare a plan.
Evaluate
We evaluate developments as the plan is carried out and keep you informed, so you can focus on other responsibilities.
Advice
We meet regularly to report on existing initiatives, provide advice, and learn what new opportunities or challenges need to be analyzed.
We take a customized approach to client service, which we believe creates a more distinctive experience and meets your individual needs.
We are committed to turning convention on its head if doing so serves our clients’ interests better.
For our personal and corporate clients, this means more than just touching base once a year at tax time. How can we help you?
