Two markets, one standard
Where are you doing business?
We work differently depending on where you are, and we have built a distinct practice for each. Choose your path and see exactly what that engagement looks like.
United States & Canada
Nearshore accounting teams
Replace the cost and churn of hiring in-house. Get a dedicated bookkeeping, controller or CFO function that works your hours, speaks your language and knows your systems.
- Full overlap with US Eastern business hours
- A named team, not a rotating ticket queue
- Specialty work: trust, HOA, fund and white-label
- A fraction of a comparable US in-house hire
Trinidad & Tobago
Local accounting & compliance
Clean books, filings that land on time and financials your bank will actually accept, delivered by an accountant down the road, not a call centre overseas.
- BIR, VAT, PAYE, NIS and Health Surcharge handled
- Bank- and lender-ready financial statements
- Company formation and corporate registration
- Fixed monthly fees, no surprise invoices
Capabilities
The full finance stack: take the part you need
Start with clean books. Add a controller when the questions get harder. Bring in a CFO when the decisions get bigger. You are never paying for a layer you have not grown into.
Books + Controller
Everything in bookkeeping, plus the review layer that catches problems before they reach your board or your bank.
- Month-end review and variance analysis
- Internal controls and approval workflows
- Multi-entity and multi-currency consolidation
Fractional CFO
Forecasting, pricing, capital planning and board reporting from someone who has sat on your side of the table.
- 13-week cash flow and scenario modelling
- Budgeting, KPIs and board packs
- Lender, investor and due-diligence support
Specialty functions
Regulated and high-scrutiny accounting, run as standing monthly disciplines with documented working papers. For example:
- Law firms: client trust account three-way reconciliation
- HOAs & property managers: reserves and board packs
- Medical practices: billing reconciliation and provider reporting
Technology driven
We run on modern accounting platforms and use automation and AI where it genuinely removes manual work, so your team pays for judgement rather than data entry.
- Bank feeds and AI-assisted coding for routine transactions
- Receipt and invoice capture straight into the ledger
- Automated exception flags, with every judgement call reviewed by a person
White-label for accounting firms
Capacity that carries your brand. We work inside your systems, to your templates, invisible to your clients.
- Overflow and busy-season capacity
- Your file structure, your review standards
- Confidentiality and non-solicitation by contract
How we start
From first call to a clean close in four steps
No long procurement cycle, no six-month implementation. Most engagements are producing their first full management pack within one close cycle, and running at a steady state by the second.
1
Discovery call
Thirty minutes on your business, your systems and where the current process is hurting. You leave with a straight answer on whether we are the right fit.
2
Scope & fixed quote
We size the work on real drivers: transaction volume, accounts, entities and complexity. Then we quote a fixed monthly fee. No hourly billing, no meter running.
3
Onboarding & cleanup
Secure system access, a documented close checklist and, where the books need it, a one-time catch-up so we start from a reconciled position.
4
Run & report
Your close runs on a fixed calendar, your reporting pack arrives on schedule, and you have a named person to call when something changes.
From the founder
Built on the belief that good numbers change decisions
Most businesses do not fail because the work was bad. They fail because nobody could see the problem in time. Our job is to make sure you can see it: clearly, monthly, in language that leads to a decision rather than a headache.
We built Murad Consulting to give companies in North America and the Caribbean access to the same standard of financial discipline that large organisations take for granted, with the responsiveness of a firm that actually picks up the phone.
We do not sell hours. We sell a finance function that runs on time, reconciles to the penny, and tells you something useful before you have to ask.
