The second reason for our name is perhaps less obvious. The word recte can also be used in a scholarly setting to notate a text or quote. While many Latin expressions are used to mark an error, insert a missing word, or make changes to an expression in an original text; their usage is often limited to just one function. The term recte works differently, providing both opportunity for corrections and leaving room for the original text. This approach allows a meaningful dialog to be created between the original writer, the editor and the reader.
Similarly, Recte Bookkeeping operates a little differently from the rest. We strive to create a meaningful, ongoing dialog with our clients, providing the information they need to operate their business with confidence and focus on dreaming up 'what's next?'. That’s the recte way.
Why the funny name? Two reasons: One, recte (pronounced RECK-tay) is a Latin word meaning right, proper, honest, correct. In this first way, recte is an obvious fit for our bookkeeping firm. More than anything we want your books to be in proper shape.

Bookkeeping has been around for virtually forever with no signs of obsoletion. One could say that, fundamentally, we provide the same services that bookkeepers in Mesopotamia offered some 5000 years ago; albeit using a digital ledger rather than one of clay. The bottom line is that as long as commercial activity has existed someone has been keeping accurate records of that activity. We are proud to be part of this rich history.
If you are in need of someone to keep your business records orderly, we invite you to consider Recte Bookkeeping as an asset to your business.
