Financial Modeling | Valuation | CFO | Investments | CA, CAIA, FMVA

Need investor-ready financial models, rigorous business valuations, investment management & analysis, or fractional CFO/Controller/FP&A support that stands up to PE, VC, lender, and board scrutiny — not just a polished spreadsheet? I’m a Chartered Accountant, Financial Modeling & Valuation Analyst (FMVA), and Certified Alternative Investment Analyst (CAIA). I combine Big-Four discipline with investment-banking rigor to deliver work that founders, investors, and management teams actually rely on for capital raises, acquisitions, and high-stakes decisions. Core Expertise: 1. Financial Modeling & Strategy Fully integrated 3-statement models, SaaS & subscription models, investor/fundraising models, scenario & sensitivity analysis, budgeting, forecasting, and KPI dashboards, built so non-finance founders can understand, edit, and defend every assumption. 2. Business Valuations DCF, comparable company, and precedent transaction valuations for startups, SMEs, and growth businesses. Independent, defensible analyses designed for fundraising, M&A, shareholder disputes, and strategic planning. 3. Investment Management & Analysis, PE & VC Support Investment thesis development, return analysis (IRR, MOIC, ROI), LBO modeling, deal screening, capital structure advice, pitch decks, CIMs, and portfolio monitoring, covering private equity, venture capital, and alternative investments. 4. Financial Due Diligence & Transaction Advisory Buy-side and sell-side due diligence, Quality of Earnings (QoE), EBITDA normalization, working capital analysis, and full M&A / transaction support from data room preparation through post-deal integration. 5. Fractional CFO, Controller & FP&A Ongoing strategic finance leadership: cash flow management, board & investor reporting, budgeting & forecasting, margin optimization, internal controls, and performance dashboards — senior-level impact without the full-time cost. Why Clients Keep Coming Back: I model the business, not just the cells. Every assumption is logical, traceable, and defensible. Clean, well-structured Excel that a non-finance founder can actually use. Fast communication and on-time delivery, every time. Recent Results: 1. Built the model behind a $1.2M seed raise 2.
