Our services

Accounting
Services

We will provide you with meaningful, accurate and timely financial and management reports. We prepare the accounts in accordance with Singapore Accounting Standards and Companies Act requirements.

As well as ensuring compliance with full statutory year-end financial statements, according to clients’ preferences with preparation of monthly, quarterly management accounts.

Taxation
Services

Every business needs to file tax returns each year. We ensure that clients are aware of all relevant deadlines. Our tax return services covering company, personal, trust and estate schemes remove the inconvenience and risk of filing tax returns incorrectly. In addition, we remind our clients of important due dates in each relevant tax year and of potential tax liabilities.

Company
Incorporation

When incorporating a company, many would-be entrepreneurs rarely give enough thought to choosing the best business vehicle. They can operate as a sole-trader, a partnership or a company – and making the right choice could ensure substantial savings. As well as setting up the appropriate business structure, we can assist with:

  • Goods & Services Tax (GST) or Value Added Tax (VAT) registration;
  • Specific business tax registration;
  • Social Security registration;
  • Statutory compliance etc.

Business
Restructuring

In changing commercial circumstances we have identified the need which many businesses have for sound advice to improve procedures, systems or their structure to increase profitability or liquidity and turn over a decline from an otherwise unavoidable insolvency position. We will carry out a thorough and concise review of the business and prepare a report for the business owner or for an outside lender.

Business Development Partnership

Business Development is crucial to continual business growth and success especially in today’s business environment. We help companies to stay agile in identifying internal and external opportunities for partnership to drive business turnover. It is about creating effective systems and processes, maximizing various circles of influence, mapping and turning prospects into loyal customers as well as developing and executing sound strategies in an efficient manner.

Social Media Marketing Partnership

Social Media is a huge leverage point for all the companies in the millennial world today. Both technology and consumer behaviour are evolving at a rapid rate so it is important to stay on top of the game. We help companies to find strategic partnerships for business collaboration and create a win-win solution for both parties to accomplish their desired mutual goals – driving engagement, increasing lead generation and sales etc, through the sharing of resources, talents and experience.
