03.1 · ACCOUNTING & FINANCE

Finance operations that run like clockwork.

From daily transaction processing to month-end close and management accounts, we run your finance operations on your system or ours, with chartered accountants reviewing everything before it reaches your desk. You gain a finance function that runs on time, without the cost of building one.

SELECTED ENGAGEMENTS

Proven results for leading organisations.

We keep our clients' identities confidential, but we are proud to share what we achieved together and how we went about it.

TradingNDA

A UAE-based trading company

Challenge

A finance team of two could not keep up with growth: books were three months behind and VAT returns were filed late.

Approach

A fully managed accounting service with a clean-up of the backlog, daily processing, monthly close and VAT preparation.

3 months
backlog cleared in six weeks
WD 5
close achieved from the second month
0
late filings since hand-over
Professional servicesNDA

A multinational subsidiary in Pakistan

Challenge

Group reporting deadlines demanded a WD 4 close, which the local team could not reliably meet.

Approach

A co-sourced model: TDC took transaction processing and reconciliations while the in-house controller kept group reporting and judgement areas.

QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions.

Do we lose control of our finances?

No. You keep full system access, approve every payment and receive monthly reporting. We run the process; you keep the decisions.

What if our books are behind?

We start with a fixed-scope clean-up of the backlog, then move into the regular service. Most backlogs are cleared within four to eight weeks.

Can you work in our time zone?

Yes. Our teams work Pakistan and UAE business hours, with extended cover around month-end and filing deadlines.
