Looking for a Grant Thornton alternative in Singapore?
How would you feel if all those mundane tasks, the ones you have been avoiding for weeks, were suddenly taken care of?
Schedule a free callMost SMEs approaching Grant Thornton Singapore are approaching the wrong kind of firm, and it is worth being clear why. Established here in 2014 as the local member of a network spanning roughly 150 markets, it is built around audit and assurance, corporate and international tax, transfer pricing, risk advisory and restructuring. More than 90% of its clients are international businesses.
When you need a statutory audit, a transfer pricing position that will survive scrutiny, or advice spanning several jurisdictions, the technical depth is exactly right and hard to buy elsewhere.
None of it helps a company whose actual need is monthly bookkeeping, a corporate secretary and one annual filing. You engage partner-level infrastructure, and pay for it, on work that a smaller firm handles daily. The mismatch is scale, not quality.
Experiencing any of these?
You are not alone.
Paying several times the going rate
Premium fees with escalating charges for add-ons that are overkill for an SME.
Bureaucracy and inertia
A pace large corporates tolerate and smaller businesses simply cannot.
One size fits all
Little customisation, and a computer-says-no answer despite the premium price.

How we compare
Duellix against the typical international firm, on the things that decide whether a back office actually works.
| Typical international firm | Duellix | |
|---|---|---|
| Who you deal with day to day | A rotating team, often junior staff on routine work | A named account manager who already knows your business |
| Dedicated account manager | A relationship partner above, changing staff below | One person, consistently |
| Response expectations | Formal channels - days rather than hours | Same working day |
| Pricing transparency | Scoped engagements with add-ons billed separately | Quoted upfront for the scope you agree |
| Xero handling | Often a proprietary or enterprise stack | Xero-native, and you keep access to your own books |
| Migration support | A chargeable onboarding project | Included, and handled for you |
| Contract lock-in | Annual engagement letters with notice periods | None |
| After onboarding | Service calibrated to the fee tier you sit in | The same service regardless of your size |
