Gaurav Goswami,PartnerWe understand that there has been a paradigm shift in the business dynamic. Company Promoters have to be focussed and alert to withstand that change. New product development and new business strategies are the key areas where the promoter should be focussed rather than focussing its time in financial management, banking and on compliances.

Small and Medium size companies cannot afford a CFO. Instead, that role is played by the accountant or in most of the cases, by the promoters. Value CFO came across bottlenecks involving most of the key decisions taken by promoters, resistance by company in giving information, corporate governance issue, lack of a professional board and no system of appraisal. Value CFO after getting the assignment gives time to understand a particular company, its product and underlying value of the company. Value CFO brings those skills and tries to create the bonding with a personal touch so that the company shares the details to get the best advice. This is one of the differentiating factors of Value CFO from other Virtual CFO providers.
