Analyst
Discover a new dimension in accounting with Seewara, customised for you as a Analyst with mandatory accounting – without do-it-yourself software and without sole dependence on artificial intelligence.
The good news for you
As a freelancer without a business, you are exempt from the obligation to keep double-entry accounts under the Income Tax Act (EStG), regardless of turnover and profit. The principle of so-called simple bookkeeping applies to you.
Seewara is the best choice for you to have your bookkeeping done by professionals. Find out more about your field of activity and industry here.What you should know
Simple bookkeeping for businesses and the self-employed
Do you understand your accounting requirements? With Seewara, we offer a simple, transparent solution for businesses and the self-employed who want to keep track of their finances.
Who counts as a commercial enterprise?
Commercial enterprises include all companies that do not fall under the category of freelancers according to §18 EStG. This includes, for example, all commercial activities that are not exempt from the accounting obligation by law. Typical commercial enterprises are, for example, trading companies, craft businesses or limited liability companies (e.g. GmbH) that are either voluntarily or legally entered in the commercial register.
Limits for simple bookkeeping
Certain limits apply to commercial enterprises that are not required to keep accounts:
- Turnover limit: 800,000 euros
- Profit limit: 80,000 euros
If your business does not exceed these limits, you can use the simplified income statement (EÜR) instead of complex double-entry bookkeeping.
Self-employed persons according to Section 18 EStG
Self-employed persons who work in one of the catalogue professions are also affected by special regulations. The catalogue professions include, among others:
- Artistic activities
- Scientific activities
- Teaching and writing activities
- Educational activities
These professions are mentioned in the exhaustive list of §18 EStG and are considered to be self-employed regardless of the level of income.

What do you actually do as a Analyst?
An analyst is a professional who analyses data and information to make informed decisions and provide strategic recommendations. The exact tasks of an analyst can vary depending on the industry, but here are some common functions they often perform:
- Data analysis: Analysts collect, process and interpret large amounts of data to identify patterns and trends. This can include quantitative and qualitative data.
- Reporting: They create reports and presentations to communicate their findings. These reports often include graphics and charts that present complex information in an understandable way.
- Market research: In many cases, analysts conduct market research to gather information about competitors, market trends and consumer preferences.
- Financial analysis: Financial analysts assess the financial health of companies, analysing balance sheets, income statements and cash flow analyses to support investment decisions.
- Risk assessment: Analysts assess risks associated with certain decisions or investments and develop strategies to minimise those risks.
- Modelling: They create models to predict future trends or outcomes, for example through financial modelling or data modelling.
- Recommendations: Based on their analysis, analysts make recommendations for improving business processes, optimising investments or adjusting strategies.
- Collaborating: Analysts often work with other departments to share data and insights and develop solutions.
Overall, analysts are critical to supporting decision-making in businesses and organisations by providing data-based insights and strategic recommendations.
