Who we are

A bunch of ex-Big 4 consultants and former industry veterans who are aware of the latest updates to the accounting standards,
 have hands-on audit experience and want to make sure you have a smooth financial statement closure process!

What does that mean in real terms?

We ensure that your team’s bandwidth (yes, that favourite word of the finance team) isn’t choked on account of continuous changes to financial statements and frequent discussions with auditors. We’ll gladly take that on.
Because of bandwidth constraints (yes, that word again!), we’ve noticed that finance teams are generally unable to challenge even the unmeritorious requests from auditors. And more so, once the position is taken, it is expected to be followed in subsequent years. Well, not on our watch!
Complex technical accounting issues, end to end preparation of financial statements and creation of technical accounting memos is our area of expertise. So you can be assured of the collective wisdom of former Big-4 auditors and senior industry controllers!
Most importantly – how do we help you sleep better? By handling the entire financial statement preparation, engaging with auditors for clearing queries, building documentation & memos around complex accounting positions, and dealing with any modifications and technical positions considered in the financials.

Outsource Financial Reporting = Achieve Strategic Objectives

With a dedicated team of former auditors and industry veterans, we’ll enable effective business
partnering by taking over preparation of financial statements, liaising with auditors for speedy
closures and ensuring number sanity for management reporting.
