CASE 3
Task:
A mobile game development company with offices in four jurisdictions, including Georgia, approached JUST Advisors with a request to create its financial structure. Its absence, in particular in the form of systematic management accounting, control over the terms of expenditure contracts and project budgets, led to a sharp decrease in net profit and a high probability of cash shortages. This worried the owners and top management, who had to quickly make management decisions without their own competencies to collect and analyze data.
In addition, over the past year the company has opened two new offices in countries where IFRS reporting and external auditing are required. The client does not have employees capable of doing this competently and on time.
