Where We Work
Reporting bases, ledger systems and statutory formats differ by market. Knowing them is the difference between an offshore team that saves you time and one that creates work.
Discuss a deal Engagement modelsNordics — our priority market
Sweden first, with active coverage across Norway, Denmark and Finland.
We read SIE4 and SIE5 files natively, bridge K2/K3 reporting onto the basis a buyer is underwriting, and work from the exports that Fortnox, Visma and Bokio actually produce. Full CET business-day overlap.

What travels across every market
- NDA-first intake before any data moves — see our data handling approach.
- Reporting basis bridged onto whatever the buyer is underwriting, not just restated.
- Ledger exports taken in their native format rather than requested as reformatted Excel.
- Statutory filings reconciled to management reporting — usually where buyer questions start.
- Deliverables in English, bilingual where the local language matters.
