About

Built for businesses that have outgrown generic finance.

Why Finance Controlled exists

Most finance firms are built for predictable businesses. Standard accounts. Standard structures. Standard timelines. The businesses we work with do not operate in that world.

  • Web3 and crypto companies with on-chain revenue and no formal financial records.
  • Offshore entities that moved fast and left the accounts behind.
  • Growth-stage businesses raising capital without investor-ready financials.
  • Established businesses, agencies and multi-entity groups where finance has fallen behind.

Finance Controlled was built specifically for this. This is not a workaround or a compromise. It is a deliberate model. The right people, at the right level, deployed quickly, and held to a standard that stands up to scrutiny when it matters most.

A system, not just people

We provide a structured, repeatable finance operation with built-in coverage and consistent delivery. Your finance function does not depend on any one individual. It runs because the system runs.

Lawrence Evans

Lawrence is an ICAEW Chartered Accountant and the founder of Finance Controlled. He has spent over 13 years with Caldwell Penn, progressing from trainee to Partner and Managing Director, where he has led the firm’s growth and client service strategy.

He now leads the group’s finance function services through Finance Controlled, overseeing delivery across complex and fast-moving client environments.

His move into crypto and Web3 finance came through direct client work, not theory. He built the finance function for World of Women from the ground up, taking wallet activity, invoices and bank statements and converting them into clean, audit-ready financials.

Lawrence established Finance Controlled to give complex businesses access to senior, qualified finance professionals who already understand their environment. He personally selects every team member deployed to a client engagement.

“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.”
