Outsourced CFO, accounting and tax for startups. Al Barsha, Dubai.
The finance team startups can't afford to hire full-time.
Fractional CFOs, accountants and tax specialists, working from one connected platform. You see where the business stands, plan with numbers you can trust, and never get caught short on cash.
The first consultation is free and ends with a written scope.

One finance function, end to end.
The same team closes the books, builds the model and sits in the board meeting. Nothing gets lost between three different firms.
| Service | What it covers | When founders usually call |
|---|---|---|
| CFO Services | Fractional, interim or part-time CFO leadership. Financial strategy, management reporting, cash-flow planning and forecasting, board and investor reporting. | Before the next raise, or when the board starts asking questions the founder can't answer from memory. |
| Accounting Services | A reliable monthly close and management accounts an investor or auditor can read without a second call. | When month-end takes three weeks and still doesn't reconcile. |
| Bookkeeping | Every transaction recorded, categorised and reconciled, so the numbers above the line are true. | When the founder is still doing it at midnight. |
| Audit Support | Audit-ready schedules, reconciliations and the working papers your auditor asks for, prepared before they ask. | The first year an investor or a bank requires audited accounts. |
| Corporate Tax | Registration, filings and planning, handled by the same people who close your books. | When the filing deadline is closer than anyone realised. |
| Financial Planning | Budgets, forecasts and scenarios: base plan, hiring plan, downside case. Updated every month, not once a year. | When "how much runway do we have?" gets three different answers. |
| Fundraising Support | An investor-ready model, a data room that is actually ready, and the narrative behind the numbers. | Six months before the raise. Ideally. |
| Business Valuation | A defensible valuation, with the method and the assumptions written down. | A funding round, an ESOP, a shareholder change. |
| Mergers & Acquisitions | Financial due diligence, deal modelling and the integration numbers, on either side of the table. | When a term sheet or an approach lands. |
| Exit Planning | Getting the company, and its numbers, ready to be bought. | Twelve to twenty-four months before the founder wants out. |
Every line above is delivered by the same team, on the same platform, from the same set of books.
