Bequip=Finance+Governance+Strategy+Business Transition
Growth transitions, transactions, capital events, governance gaps, succession and India entry — the moments where the next decision shapes the decade after.
Structured, partner-led engagements across finance, governance, strategy and business transition — built around your situation, not a standard package.
Scorecards, reports, roadmaps and dashboards your board, investors and regulators can act on — not just advisory conversations.
What we do
Nine Signature Advisory Programs
The high-value assignments Bequip is built around — business transitions, transactions, governance, capital readiness and complex cross-border work. Each one is partner-led and ends in documents your board can act on.

The Parallel Universe
The difference wasn’t ambition. It was having the right partner.
The same business, five years, two universes. Scroll.
Two founders, one verbal understanding, no SHA. Nobody sees a reason to write it down.
A foreign investor comes in. The FC-GPR window closes unnoticed and the penalty compounds quietly.
Diligence surfaces an unratified share transfer. The buyer reprices — and the promoter accepts.
Three entities, one family, no structure holding either. Growth waits for the disputes to settle.
Shareholders’ agreement signed while everyone still agrees — vesting, exits, deadlock, decided.
The investment is structured before money moves. Reporting closes on time, valuation intact.
The diligence report reaches you first. Findings are cleared before the other side reads them.
Group restructured, succession mapped, IPO runway begun. The next decision is a choice.
Same founder. Same market. Different partner.

How we think
Three moves ahead.
Always.
We help you see the next three moves before you commit to this one.
Setting the board…
Watch the board.
The decision canvas
A framework,
not a feeling.
Every recommendation we make is pulled through the same five inputs. Touch one to see what it contributes.

How the practice began
Businesses change as they grow. The decisions around them need to change too. Finance becomes more complex, informal systems reach their limits, leadership responsibilities shift — and choices that were once reversible start to compound.
Bequip exists for those moments. Finance, governance, strategy and business transition in one practice — chartered accountants, company secretaries, CFOs and corporate lawyers advising as one team, led by a partner who stays on your file.
We work with founders, promoters and leadership teams at the moments when the next stage of the business requires more than the way things have always been done. What we leave behind is written — structuring notes, governance roadmaps, diligence findings, management reporting — work that holds up in front of an investor, a regulator or a family.
What we hold ourselves to
Four values, taken literally
We sell no products and take no referral fees — so the advice you get is only ever advice.
The rulebook tells you what is permitted. We tell you what is wise — rarely the same page.
Cap tables, board papers, family arrangements — need-to-know inside the firm, NDAs as standard.
A named partner owns the engagement and signs the work — the same partner in year six as in year one.
10 — Your extended bench
The people who’ll know your business by name
