What is a Messari?
The Origins of Messari “Treasurers”
During the eleventh and twelfth century the Italian city-states of Genoa, Florence, and Venice were the leading trade centers. These city states became the world’s market for spices, sugar, wood, cotton, silk and more. The oldest discovered record of a complete double-entry accounting system is the Messari “Treasurers” accounts of the city of Genoa in 1340. Times may have changed but the need to have accuracy in your accounting has not and the double entry accounting system is still a business’s best friend against fraud, cheats and the IRS.
