Frequently asked questions

What does a business planning consultant do in the Maldives?

A business planning consultant helps you set out what the business will do, who it serves, what it will cost and how it will earn money. DBS Maldives prepares business plans, feasibility studies and financial models, and explains the numbers so you can defend them in front of a bank, an investor or a partner.

Do I need a business plan to get a business loan in the Maldives?

Banks and SME Digital look closely at the business model, risks, revenue model, management capability and ownership of each proposal. A credible business plan with financial projections answers those questions in one place and strengthens an application. We confirm the lender's current requirements before we start writing.

Does DBS Maldives prepare accounts or audit financial statements?

No. DBS Maldives does not provide audit, bookkeeping, accounting or tax filing. Our planning and analysis work uses the records and statements you already have, prepared by you or your accountant, and builds forward-looking plans, models and reviews from them.

Is my business information kept confidential?

Yes. Plans, studies and models involve sensitive figures about your business, your partners and your customers. We use that information only for the work you have asked us to do and share documents only with the people you choose, such as your lender or an incoming investor.
