How this CA lost his job in 2008 crisis & started a consulting and audit firm in competitive markets like Dubai & Bahrain

• Hi, I am CA Dinesh Singh. I was one of the many who lost my job during the 2008 financial crisis in Dubai.
• I turned that adversity into opportunity by establishing an Audit, Finance, and Tax Consulting firm. 
• With the UAE’s focus on compliance and the growth of SMEs, demand for our services is rising.
• Here is how you can expand into Dubai & GCC. 

Backstory

I began my professional journey in the mid-90s with an MNC bank in India, while simultaneously pursuing Chartered Accountancy.

Upon qualifying as a CA, I continued my banking career. However, in the late 90s and early 2000s, the bank I worked for saw a rapid decline in market share.

Around the same time, a former colleague who was leading wealth management at a UAE Nationalized Bank reached out to me. He offered me a position on his team, promising international exposure, which I eagerly accepted.
