Financial Health Check for Dubai Businesses

A structured financial health check for Dubai businesses. Liquidity, profitability and working capital reviewed, with a plain-language action plan.

We review your liquidity, profitability, working capital and debt position against sector benchmarks for Dubai and UAE businesses, and hand you a plain-language report: what is working, what is at risk, and what to fix first.

This is often the starting point before a business commits to a larger engagement such as management accounting or financial advisory, giving you a clear baseline before deciding where to invest next.

What the Review Looks At

Liquidity: current and quick ratios, and how many weeks of cash you hold
Profitability: gross and net margin trends, and which lines carry the profit
Working capital: how long customers take to pay and how long you take to pay suppliers
Debt: repayment cover, covenant headroom and off-balance-sheet commitments

What You Receive

A written report with a one-page summary, the ratios behind each finding, and a prioritised action list: what to fix in the next 30 days, what to plan this quarter and what to leave alone. We go through it with you in a meeting rather than just sending a file.

When to Commission One

Before a bank renewal or loan application, ahead of a budget cycle, when cash feels tight despite profit on paper, or before buying or selling a business. The findings often lead to ongoing management accounting or a scoped advisory project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a financial health check for?

Business owners who want an outside, structured view of their numbers, whether that is ahead of a major decision, after a difficult year, or simply because it has never been done.

What do you actually review?

Liquidity, profitability, working capital and debt position, benchmarked against your sector where relevant data exists, covering the areas that most commonly create risk for SMEs in Dubai.

How long does the review take?

It depends on how current and organised your existing records are; we scope this during an initial discovery conversation rather than quoting a fixed timeline upfront.

Will I get specific recommendations, or just a report?

Both. The report identifies what is working and what is at risk, and it ends with a prioritised, practical action plan rather than a list of observations.

Do I need to be an existing bookkeeping client to use this service?

No, this can be a standalone engagement using your existing records. Many clients use it as a first step before deciding whether to bring other services on board.

What happens after the review?

You decide what to do with it. Some clients act on the recommendations themselves; others move into an ongoing service, such as management accounting or financial advisory, to address what the review found.
