DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, September 7, 2021. Business advisory firm Quantuma has reported that it is growing its international footprint further as it opens an office in Dubai. Led by Yaser Dajani, managing director - the office is the firms fourth international location including Cyprus, the Cayman Islands and Mauritius and 23rd office site globally, with 18 established across the UK since it was founded by CEO Carl Jackson in 2013.

The Middle East team will be situated at Index Towers in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) and will provide the full suite of expert advisory services to its client base, including financial investigations and forensic accounting, asset tracing and recovery, restructuring and insolvency, corporate finance, and business transformation. The team will serve businesses across the Middle East and Africa.

Yaser Dajani, Managing director has over 20 years of experience in forensics, investigations, transactional and non-transactional business intelligence, asset-tracing and litigation consulting, and reputation audit and management. Dajani also handles internal investigations on behalf of clients and regulators, focusing on fraud, financial manipulation, asset dissipation, gross embezzlement, conflicts of interest and corporate misconduct.

He will be joined at the new location by managing directors Rehan Ahmed and DIFC-registered insolvency practitioner, Taz Rashid and they will be supported by a multi-disciplinary team of specialists who have undertaken a series of assignments in the Middle East. Dajani will also work closely with Andrew Hosking, a managing director in their restructuring and insolvency team and head of international for the firm, to further develop its cross-border advisory services and international offering.

The Middle East is an important and strategic location for us to be able to offer our support and advice to businesses of all sizes to ensure they can sustain their growth.
