What We Do
Today’s volatile business climate presents an unprecedented challenge – and opportunity – for finance functions to shape the direction of the organization. Finance must position itself as the strategic partner of the business – unlocking the value from the vast amounts of data available and using advanced analysis to extract insights that support executive decision-making. Specific fin
ancial services offered by Money Matters include:
Finance & Accounting
In a competitive global business environment, organizations face significant commercial and managerial challenges. Our clients are under increasing pressure to be leaner, more adaptable and responsive – while still satisfying the needs of shareholders and driving down the cost of doing business. Arrangement of Banking Facilities
Investment in large construction projects represents a cost in the short term that returns benefits only over the long-term use of the facility. Thus, costs occur earlier than the benefits, and owners of facilities and even contractors must obtain the capital resources to finance the costs of construction. A project cannot proceed without financing, and the cost of providing adequate financing can be quite large. Our Money Matters consultants have the know-how and long-term relationships with leading regional banks to arrange financing facilities. From preparing the necessary documentation to negotiating secure banking facilities and establishing beneficial long-term relationships between our clients and the banks, Money Matters is your partner in finding financing solutions.

Our consultants can provide a transparent and trustworthy assessment of an organization’s finances, products, market, technology, business plans, and people.

That is why we believe in partnering with our customers to get to know their culture, values, organizational structure, goals, challenges and objectives. Once we know you, we can find the ideal finance and accounting candidates for you. To find the right person for the job, whether you are looking to select a new CFO or to recruit finance and accounting staff, we benchmark the post, determine core competencies and develop a job description, research and screen potential candidates, interview and assess “best-fit” candidates and place them within your organization expertly and efficiently. Feasibility Studies
Feasibility studies aim to objectively and rationally uncover the strengths and weaknesses of an existing business or proposed venture, opportunities and threats present in the environment, the resources required to carry through, and, ultimately, the prospects for success. In its simplest terms, the two criteria to judge feasibility are cost required and value to be attained. Thus, a well-designed feasibility study should provide a historical background of the business or project, a description of the product or service, accounting statements, details of the operations and management, marketing research and policies, financial data, legal requirements, and tax obligations. As the document that evaluates a project’s potential for success, the feasibility study must be objective and credible for potential investors and lending institutions. You can trust Money Matters to produce unbiased, trustworthy feasibility studies on any potential business whether it is a new start-up or the selling, buying, merger, or joint venture of an existing business. People who can give you the necessary expertise, experience, practical solutions and flexibility are rare. Our tax consultants offer clear advice on major tax structures. Our advice is practical and understandable and always takes account of current legislative developments. Performance Management & Training
Performance management includes activities which ensure goals are consistently being met in an effective and efficient manner. It focuses on the performance of an organization, a department, employee, or even the processes to build a product or service. Overall it is a process by which organizations align their resources, systems and employees to strategic objectives and priorities. These strategic objectives and priorities often stem from financial goals set by the organization, and financial training is often partnered with performance management to align employees to those objectives. Money Matters is your partner for implementing a performance management system and training plan that helps your organization reach its strategic financial objectives and priorities with business focused tools like a balanced scorecard system, as well as practical financial training to ensure gaps are closed and employees are prepared for the path to success.
