Message

At Nesim Investments Limited, I lead full-cycle finance as the sole finance authority, delivering IFRS-aligned reporting, clean audits, and 100% timely statutory compliance. I improved forecasting accuracy by 22%, enhanced working capital by 27%, and achieved 97% on-time supplier payments through stronger cash-flow forecasting and AP/AR processes.

I've also built accounting, audit, budgeting, treasury, and compliance capabilities at HU Ming PVC Company, Housemart, and TGS Manohar Lall & Rai. Across more than 17 years, I've streamlined reconciliations, strengthened internal controls, and turned financial analysis into practical guidance for cost control, pricing, and investment decisions.
