Finance and investment. From analysis to decisions.

For over five years, I have analysed and supported businesses in West Africa. Through financial modelling, due diligence, financing and performance monitoring, I connect investment decisions with how businesses operate.

How I can support your team.

Assessing a business, organising its monitoring or improving the team’s tools: these are the main areas in which I can help.

Explore my areas of work

Support for your day-to-day needs.

Build a clear view of the portfolio

I bring together the information needed to monitor businesses. We define shared indicators, their sources and the people responsible for updates.

Simplify reporting preparation

I organise collection and checks to reduce rework. Data is brought together in clear formats, with explanations relevant to the reader.

Prepare a change of tools

I map needs, data to retain and business rules before the transition. Users take part in preparation and onboarding.

Track decisions and commitments

Each decision has an owner, a deadline and supporting information. The team can identify delays, obstacles and matters that need a decision.

A background in finance, working with businesses.

From financial audit to investment, I have built my experience in SME analysis and support.

Experience and ongoing curiosity.

With a background in audit and management control, I am interested in how businesses grow and make decisions. Reliable figures and conversations with the team both shape my work.

I also spend time writing and developing personal projects: tools, interfaces and web experiments. Perspectives brings them together with my reflections and essays.
