Turning broken finance into
For Web3, crypto and offshore businesses, scaling AI and software companies, and agencies and professional services firms where reporting, visibility and control haven’t kept pace.
Where wallet activity, token flows and multi-entity structures haven’t translated into a clear financial view.
Where the business is scaling quickly, but reporting, visibility and control have been left behind.
Where delivery is strong, but finance hasn’t kept up with the scale and complexity of the business.
Where the current finance setup no longer reflects the scale or complexity of the business.
Where cross-border structures exist, but financial control hasn’t kept pace.
Where governance and reporting requirements require specialist handling.
A complete finance function. Structured, reliable, and not dependent on any one person.
Most finance professionals are not equipped for the on-chain world. Digital asset treasury, token economics, DAO structures and evolving regulation all require direct, hands-on experience.
Finance Controlled has direct, hands-on experience with crypto-native businesses. We have built finance functions for projects operating at scale in Web3, managed treasury positions across digital and fiat assets, and produced financial statements for entities where the vast majority of activity happened on-chain.
We move fast and operate with a clear understanding of the space from day one.
You have a senior finance lead who owns the numbers, challenges the detail and gives the board a clear view of what matters.
Senior oversight of the finance function, including review and sign-off of reporting, forecasts, cash flow and key controls. Board and management reporting, financial planning, risk review and coordination with accountants, tax advisers, auditors, banks, investors and other third parties.
You know exactly where you stand financially, every month.
Monthly management accounts, budget tracking and variance analysis. Cash flow monitoring and forecasting. Review of reconciliations, controls and reporting processes. Audit preparation, compliance support, offshore entity accounting and intercompany reconciliation.
Your records stay accurate, current and ready for everything built on top of them.
Invoicing, receipts and bank reconciliation, including crypto wallets. Expense management and supplier payments. Payroll support and record-keeping. Tax and company filing support. On-chain transaction logging and categorisation.
Completely. We treat every enquiry and every client engagement as confidential. We do not discuss client names or situations with anyone outside the specific team working on that account.
Yes. We build financial records from incorporation using available data, including on-chain history where relevant, then establish the ongoing finance function.
In most cases we can begin within two weeks. For urgent situations, particularly where accounts are significantly behind or there is a deadline for insurance or due diligence, we can often move faster.
Our engagements start from £2,500 per month. The right scope depends on which roles you need and how much ground needs to be covered. We give you a clear fixed monthly fee after the discovery call.
Finance Controlled was founded by Lawrence Evans, a UK qualified accountant with direct experience working with crypto-native, offshore and multi-entity businesses across multiple jurisdictions.
Our team is built around a simple principle: you should not be paying for people to figure out how finance works.
Every engagement is led by qualified accountants with hands-on operational experience.
Where specialist input is needed, across areas such as tax, audit, compliance or legal, we know how to access it quickly through our network and apply it in the right way.
“You don’t need a team learning how finance works. You need a team that can step in, understand your business quickly, and get it running properly.”
