A step-by-step month-end close checklist that works whether you report in AED, USD, GBP or EUR: what to reconcile, what to accrue, what to review and when to lock the period.

Every bank line matched to your books, every discrepancy found and explained.
Bank reconciliation compares every transaction in your books with your bank statements, then finds and resolves the differences. The result is a true picture of your cash and an early warning when something is wrong.
It suits UAE SMEs and free-zone companies with several accounts or currencies, and overseas businesses that want an independent monthly check from a remote team. You can add it to bookkeeping, or use it on its own if your team keeps the books.
We take read-only access to statements or bank feeds where possible, match lines across every account and card, and investigate anything unmatched with you. Each month you receive reconciled balances, a list of open items and the corrections posted to your ledger.

Know your real cash position every month, not just at year end.
