“At Kent Finance we are passionate about Financial Modelling. As a team we have had to live and breathe ‘owning’ models throughout our careers in both managing PE backed businesses and in Transaction Support. This gives us unique insight into the investment lifecycle and the pressures on finance teams.
Our models are built to enable finance teams to take control of data and analysis, supporting boards and investors to achieve investment goals and drive ROI.”
