Are Cash Flow Problems Strangling Your Business Growth?

Get experienced CFO guidance that transforms your financial chaos into competitive advantage—without the AED 500,000+ commitment that large enterprises pay

Why 65% of UAE Businesses Struggle Financially

Most Dubai SMEs are trapped in the same expensive cycle. They're either:

Bleeding cash flow

because they lack proper financial controls and forecasting

Missing growth funding

due to unprofessional financial presentation and planning

Drowning in compliance

with UAE's corporate tax and VAT requirements overwhelming their resources

Making costly decisions

without proper financial analysis or strategic guidance

The solution? You don't need to hire a full-time CFO costing AED 500,000+ annually. You need strategic financial leadership tailored to your businesses needs.

What Is a Part-Time CFO for Businesses?

A part-time CFO (Chief Financial Officer) is a seasoned financial executive who provides strategic financial leadership to your businesses on a flexible basis. Think senior financial expertise without the senior executive overhead.

Critical Problems We Solve for Dubai Businesses

UAE Tax Compliance Overwhelming Businesses

The Challenge:

The UAE's 9% corporate tax on profits over AED 375,000 is crushing unprepared SMEs. Many businesses lack the expertise to navigate VAT requirements, transfer pricing rules, and new compliance obligations.

Our Solution:

We implement tax-efficient structures specifically for businesses, ensure complete compliance with Federal Tax Authority requirements, and optimise your tax position while preventing costly penalties that can cripple SME cash flow.

Cash Flow Crises Destroying Businesses Dreams

The Challenge:

Research shows 65% of UAE SMEs struggle with banking relationships, while extended payment cycles (often 45+ days) create cash flow nightmares that kill otherwise profitable businesses.

Our Solution:

We build robust cash flow forecasting systems, implement proven collection strategies, and create financial controls that give your businesses predictable liquidity and growth capital.

Funding Doors Slammed on Unprepared SMEs

The Challenge:

Dubai SMEs often struggle to access the AED 2.5 billion in available funding because their financial documentation is unprofessional and their business models aren't investment-ready.

Our Solution:

We create investor-ready financial models, prepare compelling pitch materials, and build due diligence packages that help businesses secure funding at attractive valuations.

Businesses Owners Flying Financial Blind

The Challenge:

Most Dubai SME owners make critical expansion, hiring, and investment decisions without proper financial analysis, leading to cash flow disasters and missed opportunities.

Our Solution:

We implement simple but powerful financial reporting systems, create easy-to-understand KPI dashboards, and provide the analytical frameworks that enable confident, data-driven decisions.
