Practical finance support that fits your business.
Virtual CFO & Wirtschaftsberatung
Fessler Advisory provides flexible finance support ranging from practical accounting and reporting assistance through to ongoing Virtual CFO leadership.
The objective is simple:
Make financial information clearer, more reliable and more useful for decision-making.
FINANCIAL HEALTH CHECK
A practical first step
You may know that your finance function could work better without knowing exactly where the problems are—or what should be addressed first.
The review can consider areas such as:


The Fessler Advisory Financial Health Check provides an independent review of your current finance setup.
Management reporting and the quality of financial information
Budgeting and forecasting
Cash-flow and liquidity visibility
Accounting and month-end processes
Internal controls and approval processes
Finance systems and workflows
Management information and KPIs
Opportunities to simplify or improve existing processes
UNDERSTAND
Make the numbers easier to interpret.
Financial reports are only useful if management can understand what they mean.
Support can include;


Management reporting;
KPI reporting and analysis;
Monthly financial commentary;
Variance analysis;
Cash-flow visibility;
Performance trends;
Management dashboards; and
Interpretation of financial results.
The focus is not simply on producing more reports, but on helping management identify what matters.
PLAN
Build a clearer view of what comes next.
Good financial management requires more than looking backwards.
Support can include;


Annual budgets;
Rolling forecasts;
Cash-flow forecasts;
Liquidity planning;
Scenario modelling;
Sensitivity analysis;
Financial projections; and
Decision-support modelling.
This gives management a more structured basis for planning and helps identify potential issues earlier.
IMPROVE
Strengthen the finance function.
As a business grows, finance processes often become more complex without being deliberately redesigned.
Support can include;


Month-end processes;
Reporting workflows;
Financial controls;
Approval processes;
Accounting workflows;
Reconciliations;
Management information;
Finance systems;
Process documentation; and
Digital finance workflows.
The aim is to improve accuracy, transparency and efficiency without creating unnecessary complexity.
LEAD
Virtual CFO support
Some businesses need experienced financial leadership but do not need a full-time CFO.
Support can include;


Regular management reporting;
Financial review meetings;
Cash-flow oversight;
Budgeting and forecasting;
Business-performance analysis;
Scenario planning;
Decision support;
Finance-process development;
Internal-control oversight; and
Coordination with accountants, tax advisers and other external professionals.
The level of involvement can develop as the needs of the business change.
ACCOUNTING & FINANCE SUPPORT

Not every engagement requires CFO-level involvement.
Fessler Advisory can also provide practical accounting and finance support to help businesses maintain accurate, organised and reliable financial information.


Support can include;


Reconciliations
Financial data review
Accounting-process support
Preparation of management information
Finance-system workflows
General accounting assistance


Important scope
Fessler Advisory does not provide tax advisory or tax preparation services. Where required, support is provided alongside the client’s existing tax adviser or accountant.

Typical situations may include:


Improving management reporting;
Developing a new budget or forecast;
Reviewing cash-flow management;
Strengthening financial controls;
Supporting a finance-system change;
Improving finance processes; or
