My clients come to me for peace of mind regarding their financial affairs so they can focus on growing their business. I work with household name Australian private clients, key ASX200 executives and entrepreneurial start-up businesses. I assist Small to Medium Enterprise (SME), high net worth individuals and small ASX listed clients to realise tax concessions, optimise cash flow and mitigate risk. I add value to businesses that have the following attributes: - Fast growth business looking to manage and maintain growth; - Do not have a dedicated accounting / CFO function; - Have not given consideration to small business CGT concessions, asset protection and cash flow in their business structure; - Are not sure whether they qualify for government grants such as R&D, Commercialisation Australia, Clean Tech or Export Market Development Grant; and - Do not have an efficient or effective accounting/tax compliance process resulting in interest, penalties and defaults.
