Can a fractional CFO support a company with several BVs?

Yes. Alehar's team can build one management view across relevant entities and track group cash, while Dutch accountants, tax advisers and lawyers retain responsibility for their work.

Is this the same as an interim CFO?

No. An interim CFO fills a vacancy full time for a period. Alehar is a recurring senior finance function with a team behind it, engaged month to month. It can also cover the gap after a CFO departure while you hire, and hand over cleanly when you do.

Do you work with venture-backed scale-ups and established Dutch companies?

Both. Scale-ups get investor-grade reporting, forecasts and round preparation; established companies get group reporting, cash planning and preparation for a financing or a sale. The team and the standard are the same.

Can you track our bank covenants so we see a breach coming?

Yes. Each covenant is calculated from the monthly numbers on the definitions in your facility agreement and forecast forward under different performance scenarios, so the headroom is visible every month. A projected breach is flagged for discussion with your lender.

A buyer has proposed an earn-out. Can you model what we would actually receive?

Yes. Alehar models the earn-out on the buyer's definitions, under the forecast and under weaker cases, and shows what the terms would pay and where the definitions leave room for the number to be reduced. Your advisers handle the negotiation and the drafting, using the model's estimates of what each set of terms pays.

Can you show what the sales pipeline means for cash?

Yes. Alehar estimates receipts from the pipeline using your historical conversion rates and customers' actual payment dates, and brings the changes in the pipeline into each forecast update.

What is the difference between an interim, fractional, outsourced and virtual CFO in Amsterdam?

Fractional, outsourced and virtual CFO describe one senior finance person working for you a few days a month. An interim CFO fills a vacancy full time for a set period. Alehar's Corporate Finance as a Service is a partner with analysts and managers behind them, engaged month to month, so the work is covered by a team.

What does a fractional CFO cost in Amsterdam?

Alehar's Corporate Finance as a Service is a fixed monthly retainer, starting from EURO 3,000 per month and scoped to the work agreed for the month rather than billed by the hour, and it can be ended at any time without penalty. Our pricing page has the detail, or send us your context and we will quote for your Amsterdam business.

The engagement

Why companies in Amsterdam work with Alehar

A partner, a complete team, no lock-in, and support for the next raise or exit when it comes.

A partner who is accountable

One partner owns your finance function. They work alongside the people you already have, and take on what your team does not have the capacity or the experience to run.

A complete team, not a single hire

Behind the partner is a team from analyst to executive, drawn from private equity, investment banking and strategy consulting. Reporting, planning and transaction preparation are covered without adding headcount.

Month to month, without lock-in

The engagement runs monthly and can be ended at any time, without penalty. You pay for a senior finance function, not for the cost of building one.

The same partner for the raise or the sale

Alehar advises on fundraising, debt and M&A, and brings a network of venture, private equity and corporate investors. When the next step comes, the people who have run your numbers run the process.
