NEAT specialises in financial modelling, business insight and decision support.
Financial modelling and making sense of ‘numbers’ is at the heart of what we do. We believe that appropriately built financial models enable the commercial reality of a potential transaction (or series of transactions) to be better understood. It follows that better understanding provides for informed and confident decision making.
We adopt the FAST Standard and promote the benefits of standardised financial modelling approaches to our clients.
NEAT also provides a range of non-executive support to our ambitious, fast growing clients requiring additional board room level experience, challenge and advice.
The FAST Standard (www.fast-standard.org) was founded on its acronym, Flexible, Accurate, Structured, and Transparent. It is used by thousands of modellers worldwide as a shared code for financial modelling. In 2011, the FAST Standard Organisation Limited, a not-for-profit entity, was established with the specific aim of protecting, promoting, and further developing the FAST Standard.
The continuous development of the standard is a collaborative process involving professional modellers from across the world. This collaboration condenses millions of man-hours of practical experience into a professional, practical and effective set of rules that is increasingly becoming the quality benchmark for the world's leading businesses, banks and advisers.
NEAT is sector agnostic, but has particular strength in modelling complex businesses including those where revenues span multiple periods, those with significant working capital requirements and those with non-standard balance sheet structures.
We invest time with all of our clients to understand the business and the individuals driving it. No two businesses are the same so whilst our rich experience accelerates our learning, this important time investment in our clients should not be underestimated.
