Who is Clarity?
We’re so excited to officially announce that - as of the 1st of June - we have demerged from Advantage accounting as a brand new company. So, here’s a very warm welcome to Clarity Accounting (Scotland) Limited!
As we start out on this fresh venture, we wanted to properly introduce ourselves. So, in this first post, we’ll explain the big change, share our vision for the future, and let our valued clients know whether anything will be changing for them.

What’s in a Name? Why We Chose Clarity
Behind the scenes, we’ve been working hard to start a new business and bring Clarity to life. Yet, one of the toughest decisions we’ve had to make along the way? Choosing our name!
A name, after all, is a huge reflection of a business’s identity and ethos. That’s why we wanted something that neatly summed up what we’re about, whilst also fitting with the core values we’ve committed to build our firm around.
