Your External CFO for
SMEs in Switzerland
The financial work that goes beyond bookkeeping - without a full-time hire.
Challenges
Key financial challenges as companies grow and become more complex:
Finance focused on historical reporting rather than future-oriented decision support.
Accounting numbers do not provide the unit economics and margin transparency needed for effective decision-making.
Major strategic and investment decisions are taken without structured financial modelling and scenario analysis.
Financial governance and internal control frameworks are not sufficiently established to support growing organisational complexity.
There is no clear ownership of financing, including debt, equity, and capital structure decisions, as the business evolves.
Communication with external stakeholders lacks clear financial interpretation and decision context.
Cross-functional projects lack a single point of financial integration.
Solutions
CFO support focused on clarity, structure, and decision-making:
Forward-looking financial planning and scenario analysis to support management decisions.
Decision-grade financial insight, including unit economics and margin analysis across products, clients, and activities.
Structured financial modelling to support strategic initiatives, investments, and long-term value creation.
Establishment of financial governance and internal control frameworks appropriate to the company’s size and complexity.
Clear ownership of financing decisions, covering debt, equity, and capital structure across different growth stages.
Structured financial communication with banks, investors, and boards, focused on clarity, context, and decision relevance.
Integrated financial oversight across cross-functional initiatives, ensuring alignment between strategy, operations, and financial priorities.

Define priorities and scope
If there is a fit, priorities are clarified and an appropriate level of involvement is defined.
CFO involvement
CFO support starts at the level required for your situation.
Adjust as things evolve
