Reading the numbers behind Dubai businesses

Dubai has a great many people making financial decisions who were never trained as accountants: founders of free zone companies, general managers of regional offices, department heads in trading and logistics groups who own a budget. They see statements every month and are expected to act on them. This course is built for them as much as for the accountants who prepare those statements.

The questions are practical ones. Can the business carry another credit line? Is the margin on a contract real once costs are allocated? Where is cash being tied up? Since UAE corporate tax applies for financial years starting on or after 1 June 2023, profitability analysis also has to look after tax, not only before it. You work through profitability, liquidity and efficiency ratios on that footing.

Individuals join a live online cohort from Dubai, and companies can have the program delivered in-company at their premises, which works well for a management team that needs a shared way of reading the numbers. Mahmoud Chehade spent 30 years leading finance across the UAE and the Gulf and teaches in Arabic or English, so the cases are drawn from Gulf businesses.

Our office is in Beirut. Dubai is served through live online cohorts and in-company training delivered at your premises. See all accounting training in Dubai.

Financial Analysis for Decision-Makers in Dubai: Questions

How much does the financial analysis course cost in Dubai?

In Dubai, the course costs the program fee shown on this page, which covers the whole program rather than a single session. Because it is coaching, the plan follows your starting level, so tell us what you need the numbers to do for you and we will confirm the program and its cost first. Companies in Dubai training a management team get a tailored rate.

How long does the financial analysis course take for a manager in Dubai?

For a manager in Dubai, the multi-week duration on this page is a guide rather than a fixed timetable. The sessions and pace follow your current level and how quickly ratios, trends and cash analysis land for you, so two people can finish on different schedules. Tell us your starting point and we will map a timeline that fits your week in Dubai.

Do I need accounting experience for the financial analysis course in Dubai?

No, you do not need to be an accountant to take the financial analysis course in Dubai. It is built for managers and business owners as well as accountants, so what you need is to work with financial statements, not to prepare them. Being comfortable with some figures and lost with others is normal, and your plan is built around it.

How is the financial analysis course tailored to me in Dubai?

It starts with where you actually are in Dubai: your role, your experience and the decisions you need the numbers for. We build the plan around the gaps that matter to you, so topics you already handle move quickly and the ones holding you back get the time they need. A business owner and a finance analyst in Dubai will not follow identical plans.

Is the financial analysis course delivered online or in person in Dubai?

In Dubai the course is delivered live online, or in person as in-company training at your own premises for a team. Our only office is in Beirut, so there is no Dubai classroom. Every session is live and interactive, never pre-recorded, so you can bring your own company’s figures and work through them.
