Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between CFO and virtual CFO services?

How many days per month does a fractional CFO typically work?

Two to ten days per month is common for SMEs, scaling up during fundraising or audit periods. Scope is agreed upfront based on your priorities and budget.
