Is Outcscoursing the Solution?

Top 10 challenges when entering a country or starting up a business are:

  • Understanding, complying and keeping up-to-date with local rules, regulations and processes;
  • Understanding cultural differences and language;
  • Assessing local competition;
  • Finding the right local talent;
  • Educating local staff and giving them career opportunities;
  • Finding the right premises and local suppliers;
  • Adhering to labour laws and paying employees at market rates;
  • Establishing banking and accounting measures;
  • Incorporation; and
  • Intellectual property rights enforcement and discrimination against foreign firms.

Addressing these challenges on your own may not always be optimal.

Outsourcing your business’s back office functions frees up valuable time that can be put into bettering your company. Backend office functions can be a heavy distraction from the day-to-day running of things and having your bookkeeping and other functions in-house can lead to a conflict of interests. All of these time-wasters and distractions need to go—out of sight, out of mind.

When it comes to enlisting the help of a business service provider there are many options. We choose for Equinox because of the detailed all-inclusive service offering and have not regretted our choice. They have enabled us to set-up a local company in Kenya, open bank accounts in the region, helped us in dealing with regulators and payment providers in the region. Without Equinox’ assistance the whole process would have taken many months more and would have required frequent travel to the region. I can whole-heartily recommend Equinox as a partner.
