    Book a discovery call

    Thirty minutes with a partner on where you are, what is due and what is at risk. It is the fastest way to see whether we fit.

/ FREQUENTLY ASKED

Questions we hear a lot.

Can you act as our outsourced or fractional CFO?

Yes. We provide fractional and virtual CFO services (planning, budgeting and forecasting, working-capital and cash management, board and investor reporting, deal support and finance-function build-out) scaled to what your business actually needs.

Can a Free Zone company still benefit from the 0% Corporate Tax rate?

Sometimes. A Qualifying Free Zone Person can access 0% on qualifying income, but the conditions (qualifying activities, adequate substance, de minimis limits and audited accounts) are strict and easy to fail. We run a qualifying-income review so you know where you actually stand before you file.

Which markets and jurisdictions do you cover?

We are headquartered in Dubai and work across the UAE, KSA and the wider GCC, with reach into the UK and North America and delivery teams in Pakistan. Every engagement is led by Big-Four-trained, qualified Chartered Accountants.
