After 2 years of COVID-19, we thought to start fresh by assessing our current situation from a financial and strategic point of view. We selected CFBL for this review and assessment of our investor funding pitch. CFBL’s services were above expectations, as we got a clear view of where we stand, the Credit Report as well as an actionable set of recommendations. Their report was very valuable and we thank them for this. We are looking forward to working with them again…. which will be very soon. Highly recommended!
