Answer the second question before the investor asks it.
Investors decide a round in the questions after the pitch. Whether the company can answer them is a matter of preparation, and preparation is something you can hire.
Where Saudi rounds slow down
In Saudi raises a few things recur:
The model breaks when pushed
One changed assumption and nobody can say what happens to the rest.
The data room is assembled mid-process
Which shows the investor how the company really runs.
The pitch and the accounts tell different stories
The deck describes one trajectory, the financials another, and a careful investor reads both.
Nobody owns the raise
The founder runs the process and the company at once, and one of them slips.
A fractional CFO who has run a raise before takes it over: the model, the pack, the data room, diligence, and the questions still to come. Saudi funds, banks and the Nomu and Tadawul routes each look at a company in their own way, and the CFO we match will have worked with the kind you are approaching.
Who this is for, and who it is not
Best for
- Preparing for a funding round in the next three to six months
- A data room or financial model that will not survive diligence
- Gaps in investor reporting, cap table or board resolutions
- A founder carrying every financial question personally
- Numbers and investor narrative that do not yet line up
Not for
- A business with no revenue or traction to diligence yet
- A one-off pitch deck or investor slide design
- A team that wants a document produced, not a leader embedded
- A round already closed that needs only bookkeeping
What a Saudi raise gets from us
Saudi funds, banks and the Nomu route all know the fractional CFO who prepares a round. What they test is the preparation, so that is what we build the engagement around.
Checked against the timetable
We review progress on agreed dates and flag it early if the model or the data room slips.
A second finance view
Zakat treatment, a bank covenant or an investor's model: your CFO can check it with another finance operator in the collective.
No restart mid-raise
If your CFO cannot see the round through, our notes on the raise carry straight into a new search.
Matched to Saudi investors
Funds, banks and a listing adviser each read a company differently. We match a CFO who has dealt with the ones you face.
From gap to investor-ready
Calibrated to your round timeline.
Fundraise assessment
We assess your current financial infrastructure, identify gaps, and calibrate to your round timeline.
CFO deployment
Your matched Fractional CFO is embedded within two to three weeks and begins building investor-grade infrastructure.
Fundraise preparation
Financial model, data room, board pack, governance, built and stress-tested before you enter conversations.
Round support and post-close
Your CFO stays through the round and transitions to execution mode. Reporting infrastructure, milestone tracking, and board presence.
Before, during and after the round
What a fractional CFO owns at each stage of a raise.
A fractional CFO leads every fundraise
Most raises need only the CFO. When diligence probes operations or technology, a COO or CTO joins from the same collective.
