Each phase in a business life cycle requires specific guidance and advice. A startup needs different expertise than an entrepreneur who wants to leave or sell his business. You also want to be sure that your figures are accurate and up to date. After all, they support your strategy. You must be able to move quickly. At the same time, you want someone who can translate those numbers into understanding, new insights and opportunities for your business. Someone who knows your ambitions and your struggles through and through, and look ahead with you. A sounding board, a coach and a critical sparring partner who give you asked and unasked advice. He is not alone. He - and you - will be surrounded by a team of financial analysts, risk advisers, accountants, auditors, tax advisers and HR consultants. He ensures that the right specialists is available for you to get started.
