To reduce cost and maximize margins, often squeeze on salaries paid to talent affecting quality of talent pool.
Don't have an employer brand (unlike Big 4 / GCCs) and are unable to attract quality talent.
Operate as 3rd parties, and are unable to integrate with the culture of the US firms.

FAQs
1. Why should CPA firms consider setting up a GCC instead of outsourcing their accounting work?
A GCC allows firms to maintain control over operations and workforce while ensuring quality and cultural alignment. Unlike outsourcing, which often involves third-party management and hidden costs, a GCC offers transparency.
2. Why is data security important when establishing a GCC?
Data security is crucial as firms handle sensitive financial information. The BOT model emphasizes robust security measures that are compliant with international standards (e.g., SOC 2, GDPR).
3. Why is India considered a prime location for establishing a GCC?
India offers a vast pool of highly skilled accounting professionals, competitive labor costs, and familiarity with U.S. accounting standards.
