The beginning of Basico!

When they got a chance of developing business-minded outsourcing of Finance, they initiated a focused partnership within the framework of Arthur Andersen. The department instantly grew, and when Arthur Andersen merged with Deloitte in 2002, it had become the largest department in the company.

As the merger of the two cultures was falling into place, Nicolai and Jacob realised, however, that the market needed an independent supplier of CFO Services: a new player in the market focused on making the support functions successful.

They had a desire to be the very best at supporting the support functions and to be known for hands-on deliveries on projects together with the customer – driven by consultants with experience from the CFO’s engine room.

Today, more than 20 years later, our focus remains the same. But much has happened since our pillars were articulated. Here’s a brief rundown of Basico today:

• Our expertise spans from financial advisory and legal solutions to people and payroll services.

• We have built a strong network of experienced consultants and associates.

• We are a partner-driven company with a strong group of highly experienced partners across our locations.

Our Basico DNA is based on our three values - professionalism, responsibility, and commitment. This may sound very well, but what does it mean to you? Because all companies must have values. You may be right, and below you can see how our values are transformed into specific actions. That is after all easier to relate to, isn't it?

Professionalism:

• We share many years' experience from the business world.

• We can see details, correlations, and derived consequences.

• We know our customers' engine room from the inside.

• We are focused on securing a solid basis.

• We support our employees' professional development.

• We collaborate across our service lines to challenge and develop each other.

• We use our professional differences as a strength.

Responsibility:

• We take ownership - the customer's challenges are our challenges.

• We have a holistic focus and take responsibility beyond our own deliveries.

• We deliver, complete, and hand over the deliveries as agreed.

• We involve the customer in our solutions - we collaborate with the customer.

• We consider self-determination and decision-making power essential at all levels.

• We are each other's support base so that nobody is left alone.

• We consider career development a common responsibility - across Basico and its employees.

Commitment:

• We set about the job with enthusiasm and empathy.

• We are quick at identifying ourselves with the customer's culture, business, and challenges.

• We bring positive energy to the customer's organisation.

• We are always accessible and present in our relations.

• We are happy and proud when we succeed together.

• We listen to the individual's wishes and career dreams.

• We create an environment where everybody can be the best version of him- or herself.

Having built a solid foundation in Denmark, Basico are now expanding towards new markets and possibilities. Who knows, maybe we’ll have the opportunity to work together soon.
