Go to the investor with the answers already written.
A raise rests on the model, the data room and a story consistent with both. Preparing them takes longer than the pitch.
Where a raise loses time
The pitch is rarely the weak point:
A model built for the founder
Assumptions that make sense to their author and fall apart under a stranger's questions.
Documents that live in many places
A data room assembled in the middle of diligence.
Valuation set by sentiment
A number with no support beyond what a competitor raised.
Cross-border investors, Swiss paperwork
Foreign funds expect their own forms of reporting, and the Swiss entity has to satisfy both.
A fractional CFO builds the model and the data room before you go out, then runs the process beside you. The founder keeps building the company while someone else keeps the raise on schedule.
Who this is for, and who it is not
Best for
- Preparing for a funding round in the next three to six months
- A data room or financial model that will not survive diligence
- Gaps in investor reporting, cap table or board resolutions
- A founder carrying every financial question personally
- Numbers and investor narrative that do not yet line up
Not for
- A business with no revenue or traction to diligence yet
- A one-off pitch deck or investor slide design
- A team that wants a document produced, not a leader embedded
- A round already closed that needs only bookkeeping
Our role in the raise
Investors talk to your CFO. Behind that, we keep the brief, the timetable and the governance in view until the round closes.
With you to the close
We review the process with you as it runs and say plainly when the model or the data room is falling behind the timetable.
Second views on the terms
A foreign fund's reporting demands or an unfamiliar term can go to colleagues in our collective of 800+ who have negotiated them.
The raise keeps its footing
Should your CFO have to leave mid-round, we search again with the round's papers and history in hand and lead the changeover ourselves.
Matched to the round
We match for the kind of capital you are raising and for how the founder works. Cross-border rounds need a CFO comfortable with both sides.
From gap to investor-ready
Calibrated to your round timeline.
Fundraise assessment
We assess your current financial infrastructure, identify gaps, and calibrate to your round timeline.
CFO deployment
Your matched Fractional CFO is embedded within two to three weeks and begins building investor-grade infrastructure.
Fundraise preparation
Financial model, data room, board pack, governance, built and stress-tested before you enter conversations.
Round support and post-close
Your CFO stays through the round and transitions to execution mode. Reporting infrastructure, milestone tracking, and board presence.
Before, during and after the round
What a fractional CFO owns at each stage of a raise.
A fractional CFO leads every fundraise
Most raises need only the CFO. When diligence probes operations or technology, a COO or CTO joins from the same collective.
