FINANCE LEADERSHIP: Weekly CFO insights for the UAE and GCC — Subscribe Free →
CFO Platforms & Tools

Built from the Front Line.
Not the Whiteboard.

Three platforms built by a practising UAE CFO to solve problems that existing tools — templates, GRC platforms, and generic AI — could not solve. Each one is grounded in 20 years of Big 4 and CFO experience across the UAE and GCC.

TPAI — Transfer Pricing Intelligence
AI-powered transfer pricing documentation for UAE CFOs. Big 4 depth. Mid-market speed and cost.
UAE CT Law 2022 OECD BEPS Action 13 FTA Compliant MD 97/2023 MD 57/2023

Most UAE finance teams treat transfer pricing as a deadline to meet. TPAI treats it as what it actually is — a strategic planning tool that determines where profit sits in your group. Built on the diagnostic methodology of a senior TP professional and validated against FTA compliance requirements, TPAI covers the complete UAE transfer pricing lifecycle.

Local File & Master File — FAR-driven, entity-specific documentation. Not generic templates.
Benchmarking Memo — IQR methodology, screening criteria, GCC-specific adjustments.
Arm's Length Pricing — DEMPE profit allocation waterfall, full method evaluation.
Audit Defence — Weighted FTA risk scoring, position paper, 90-day roadmap.
APA Module — Eligibility assessment, pre-filing memo, cost-benefit analysis.
IC Agreement Generator — FTA-compliant intercompany agreements. Word download.

Financial Policy Generator
Diagnostic-first financial policy documentation. COSO-mapped. Regulatory-aware. Big 4 depth at mid-market speed.
COSO Framework IFRS Aligned UAE Regulatory FTA Guidance CBUAE Compliant

There is a folder in almost every company labelled Policies and Procedures. The documents inside were accurate on the day they were written and increasingly fictional since. The Financial Policy Generator solves this — not with a template, but with a structured diagnostic that asks the uncomfortable questions a Big 4 manager would ask in a controls review.

Diagnostic-first approach — structured interview based on actual Big 4 controls review questions.
COSO mapping — every control and gap mapped to the five COSO components.
Regulatory intelligence — monitors IFRS amendments, FTA guidance, CBUAE circulars, UAE labour law changes.
Gap identification — identifies what is missing, not just what is present. Absences matter as much as presences.
Actionable output — named owners, target dates, precise remediation. Not aspirational. Boardroom-ready.

EOSB Stress Test Calculator
Quantify your EOSB liability, model the working capital impact, and stress-test your balance sheet before the mandate lands.
Free Download Excel Workbook Multiple Scenarios UAE Labour Law
🟢 No Email Required

UAE companies are carrying an EOSB liability most don't actually have the cash for. The provision exists. The cash usually doesn't. With mandatory EOSB funding expected in mid-to-late 2026, every UAE CFO needs to know their number before the announcement lands — not after.

This Excel workbook runs the stress test on your specific numbers. Enter your headcount, average salary, and average tenure. The model calculates your total EOSB liability, the working capital gap, and the balance sheet shock if mandatory funding is introduced — in three scenarios: base, moderate, and severe.

Total liability calculation — by entity, by headcount, by tenure bracket.
Working capital impact — what percentage of your free cash disappears under mandatory funding.
Three funding scenarios — immediate, 12-month phased, 24-month phased.
Contribution rate model — 5.83% first 5 years, 8.33% thereafter as per Cabinet Resolution No. 96 of 2023.
Board-ready summary — one-page output you can present at your next board meeting.
