You'd be forgiven for thinking that being wealthy is easy, but this isn't always the case. Having money comes with its own set of unique problems. Naturally, those with a good amount of capital will want to nurture and protect it to the best of their ability, and investing it can be fraught with risk. With added compliance rules, such as Shariah, it can be even harder.

It's difficult to measure the performance of your business if you've got nothing to compare it to. Whether you take the figures from a previous year, look at budgeting targets or assess competitor businesses in the same industry as yours, you need something to measure up against; you need a benchmark.

Benchmarking can be quite a complex process. Not only do you need to put your hands on relevant industry information to assess your performance, you need to make sure that information is relevant, accurate and appropriately balanced with your ambitions for growth. One of the most common benchmarking applications is known as the 'Key Financial Indicator'.

At Be-Yond, we specialise in conducting studies and surveys that highlight performance standards in a given sector of the market. We then produce detailed reports that identify your strengths and weaknesses in comparison, pointing out key areas that may require additional resource or attention. To ensure the best results, we segment the market by industry, sector, scale, area and legal form and pull in huge amounts of data. We keep your business in the know and ahead of the curve.

Translation isn't easy. If you've used a translation service before, you'll be used to receiving documents and emails that make little sense, often requiring further research and clarification to establish real meaning. We understand that there's more to translation than simply lining up words and converting them; it's about taking the meaning of the source material and re-creating it in another language, conveying the author's thoughts, feelings and ideas. With our translation services we take all of this into account, considering culture, context and character above all else.
