Business in the UAE: financial advisory

Bring your business, ownership structure and cash flows into a clear financial picture. We help prepare the analysis and supporting records you need for business decisions, banking discussions and conversations with your tax adviser.

For business owners and companies worldwide with Russia–UAE connections: owners based in the Emirates, businesses with cross-border operations and investors in Dubai property. We begin with your specific question and an agreed scope of financial work.

Choose a standalone service or a phased engagement. Deliverables, timing and fees are agreed before work begins.

Practical services for your situation

Each service addresses a defined business question. The depth of review and final deliverables depend on your records, ownership structure and objectives.

01

Russia–UAE financial diagnostic

Review revenue, costs, debt, owner transactions and flows between accounts. Separate personal activity from company operations and reconcile financial inconsistencies.

Deliverable: a cash flow map, identified gaps and a prioritised action plan.

02

Cash flow modelling across business entities

Connect the business model, contracts, invoices and actual payments. Model liquidity needs, currency scenarios and the financial implications of arrangements between a Russian sole proprietor and a UAE company.

Deliverable: a cash flow structure and financial model with assumptions and questions for your accountant and lawyer.

03

Source of funds and wealth documentation

Build an evidence trail from the original income or capital source to the funds in question. Reconcile contracts, statements, distributions, asset sales and other supporting records.

Deliverable: a document register, transaction chronology and draft financial explanation for the bank.

04

Financing readiness for cross-border businesses

Assess the borrower, operating country, existing debt, cash generation and repayment sources. This includes Russian businesses whose owners live in the UAE.

Deliverable: a financial readiness review, a documented funding requirement and a checklist for lender discussions.

05

Dubai property financial review

Organise acquisition costs, funding sources, rental income, operating expenses, debt service and sale proceeds. Account for currencies, transaction dates and supporting records.

Deliverable: a return and cash flow analysis, transaction schedule and organised data for a specialist tax review.

06

Financial preparation for double-taxation questions

Organise the facts: counterparties, income types, dates, countries, contracts, tax withheld and supporting evidence. Identify questions around residence, permanent establishments and related-party arrangements.

Deliverable: an organised fact pack and issues list for a tax adviser. Treaty eligibility and tax calculations require a specialist assessment.

How an engagement works

  1. 01

    Define

    Agree the objective, countries, parties and intended deliverables.

  2. 02

    Gather

    Confirm the required records and how they will be provided.

  3. 03

    Analyse

    Reconcile the numbers, document assumptions and prepare the agreed materials.

  4. 04

    Review

    Discuss the findings and set out the next steps.

What to have ready for an initial discussion

  • A short description of the business, operating countries and ownership structure.
  • The question you need to resolve: banking, financing, cash flow or property.
  • An overview of available contracts, statements, financial reports and income evidence.
  • If a bank has already contacted you, its request and response deadline.

Scope of the engagement

NG Finance provides financial diagnostics, models, explanations and document preparation within the agreed scope. Tax returns, legal opinions, statutory audits and representation before public authorities require a separate arrangement with appropriately qualified specialists. Account, payment and financing decisions remain with the relevant bank or lender, subject to country requirements, documentation and its policies.

Describe the situation in your initial enquiry. Please do not send bank statements, identity documents or other confidential records through the public form. We will agree how to provide documents separately.

How the treaty and banking requirements fit in

The Russia–UAE double-taxation agreement must be considered against the specific income, tax status and supporting evidence. It does not create an automatic tax exemption. For banking documentation, we distinguish the source of particular funds from the origins of the customer’s overall wealth.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an existing UAE company?

No. You can engage us while planning a structure. We review its financial implications and identify questions to resolve before incorporation or the first transactions.

Can I request only a source-of-funds review?

Yes. We agree the transaction, available evidence and format of the financial explanation. The bank may still require additional information.

Do you determine tax residence or guarantee treaty relief?

We organise the facts and financial records for review. Residence, treaty eligibility and specific tax obligations require assessment by an appropriately qualified tax adviser.

How much does a consultation cost?

Fees and timing depend on the question and the available records. We agree the scope and deliverables before work begins.
