What is the difference between a fractional, outsourced, virtual and interim CFO in Singapore?

The labels overlap. Fractional, part-time, virtual and outsourced CFO all describe one senior finance person working for you a few days a month; an interim CFO is one person filling a vacancy full time for a period. Alehar's Corporate Finance as a Service is neither: a senior lead with a team behind them, engaged month to month, covering reporting, planning and transaction preparation.

Do you provide Singapore tax, GST, audit or company-secretarial services?

No. Your accountant, auditor, tax adviser and corporate-secretarial provider keep responsibility for that work. Alehar uses their input when it affects forecasts or management reporting.

Do you work with venture-backed companies preparing for a Series A or B?

Yes. Alehar builds the reporting, forecast and data room that investors test, and keeps them current month to month. When the round is live, the same team can run the process through Alehar's Raising Equity or Debt service.

Can you consolidate reporting across Singapore and regional subsidiaries?

Yes. Alehar builds one management view across entities and currencies so the group can be run from a single set of numbers. Statutory consolidation and audit remain with your auditor.

What does a fractional CFO cost in Singapore?

Alehar's Corporate Finance as a Service is priced as a fixed monthly retainer, starting from USD 2,500 per month and scoped to the work agreed for the month rather than billed by the hour. That is a fraction of a full-time CFO, it comes with a team behind the lead, and it can be ended at any time without penalty. See our pricing, or send us your context and we will quote for your situation.

Fractional and outsourced CFO services in Singapore

Singapore companies outgrow founder-led finance long before they need a full-time CFO. Alehar's Corporate Finance as a Service gives you a senior finance team that scales with the business, from monthly reporting through to a raise, loan or sale.

The engagement

Why companies in Singapore work with Alehar

A senior lead, a complete team, no lock-in, and a partner for the transaction when it comes.

A senior lead who is accountable

One senior person 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 lead 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.
