Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, for the year ended December 31, 2015. The interim results for the period ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

Note 2 - Nature of Operations

Global Equity Partners, Plc. (“GEP”), a private company, was organized under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles on September 2, 2009. Global Equity International Inc. (the “Company” or “GEI”), a reporting company since June 21, 2012, was organized under the laws of the state of Nevada on October 1, 2010. On November 15, 2010, GEP executed a reverse recapitalization with GEI. On August 22, 2014, we formed a Dubai subsidiary of GEP called GE Professionals DMCC. GEP is the parent company of its 100% subsidiary GE Professionals DMCC (Dubai). On June 10, 2016, GEI incorporated its wholly owned subsidiary, called GEP Equity Holdings Limited, under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles.

Revenue is generated from business consulting services and employment placements.

Note 3 - Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net (loss) / income of $(65,130) and $261,808 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 respectively, net cash used by operations of $251,661 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016; and a working capital deficit of $1,625,662 and stockholders´ equity of $1,471,605 as of September 30, 2016. Some of these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability for the Company to continue its operations is primarily dependent on:

Whilst the Company´s current engagements are being consummated and executed, the Company may also have to resort to borrowing additional funds with certain related parties, such as management, and also third party funders on a non-discounted basis (if for shares, on a fixed price basis) to sustain the Company’s existence. In addition, in the event that operating cash flows are slowed, the Company would reduce its overheads wherever possible and any monies owed to the management can also be forgiven, if necessary.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The Company´s deferred revenue, $225,000 at September 30, 2016, is non-refundable hence once certain contractual milestones are achieved or contractual terms pass over time, as applicable, on each individual engagement a proportion of deferred revenue will become revenue for the Company and therefore no cash outlays are required for these liabilities.

It is important to note that the two largest debts (The Able Foundation loan & Eden loan) stated on our current liabilities are non-collateralized and non-convertible loans. However, Able Foundation has a judgment against the Company which is currently under appeal (See Note 10).

Note 4 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

Global Equity International Inc. is the parent company of its two 100% subsidiaries called Global Equity Partners Plc. and GEP Equity Holdings Limited. Global Equity Partners Plc. is the parent company of its 100% subsidiary, GE Professionals DMCC (Dubai). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation, or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future non-confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include allowance for doubtful accounts and loans receivable, estimates of fair value of securities received for services, estimates of fair value of securities held, depreciation of fixed assets, valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, derivative valuations, and equity valuations for non-cash equity grants.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, competition and potential risk of business failure. The Company´s headquarters are based in Dubai.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2016 and at December 31, 2015, respectively; the Company had no cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company recognizes accounts receivable in connection with the services provided. The Company recognizes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on an analysis of current receivables aging and expected future write-offs, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts considered at risk or uncollectible.

Foreign Currency Policy

The Company’s accounting policies related to the consolidation and accounting for foreign operations are as follows: The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. The functional currency of the Company’s Dubai subsidiary is the Arab Emirates Dirham (AED). All foreign currency balances and transactions are translated into United States dollars “$” and/or “USD” as the reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Equity transactions are translated using spot rate prevailing at each historical transaction date. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of our stockholders’ equity (deficit) as “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).” Since the AED is tagged to the U.S. dollar, translation gains and losses are always de minimis. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the statement of operations.

Investments

(A) Classification of Securities

Marketable Securities

At the time of the acquisition, a marketable security is designated as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading, which depends on the ability and intent to hold such security to maturity. Securities classified as trading and available-for-sale are reported at fair value, while securities classified as held-to-maturity are reported at amortized cost.

Any unrealized gains and losses are reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains (losses) are computed on a specific identification basis and are reflected in the statement of operations.

Cost Method Investments

Securities that are not classified as marketable securities are accounted for under the cost method. These securities are recorded at their original cost basis and are subject to impairment testing.

(B) Other than Temporary Impairment

The Company reviews its equity investment portfolio for any unrealized losses that would be deemed other than temporary and require the recognition of an impairment loss in income statement. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, the Company evaluates, among other factors, general market conditions, the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than cost, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investments. Management also considers the type of security, related-industry and sector performance, as well as published investment ratings and analyst reports, to evaluate its portfolio. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge is recorded and a new cost basis in the investment is established. If market, industry, and/or investee conditions deteriorate, the Company may incur future impairments. The Company did not record any permanent impairment during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 or 2015.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided based on estimated useful lives of the assets. Cost of improvements that substantially extend the useful lives of assets can be capitalized. Repairs and maintenance expenses are to be charged to expense when incurred. In case of sale or disposal of an asset, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the consolidated financial statements.

Beneficial Conversion Feature

For conventional convertible debt where the rate of conversion is below market value, the Company records any “beneficial conversion feature” (“BCF”) intrinsic value as additional paid in capital and related debt discount.

When the Company records a BCF, the relative fair value of the BCF is recorded as a debt discount against the face amount of the respective debt instrument. The discount is amortized over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.

Debt Issue Costs

The Company may pay debt issue costs in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt whether convertible or not. These costs are recorded as debt discounts and are amortized over the life of the debt to the statement of operations as amortization of debt discount.

Original Issue Discount

If debt is issued with an original issue discount, the original issue discount is recorded to debt discount, reducing the face amount of the note and is amortized over the life of the debt to income statement as amortization of debt discount. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.

Valuation of Derivative Instruments

ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” requires that embedded derivative instruments be bifurcated and assessed, along with free-standing derivative instruments such as warrants, on their issuance date and measured at their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing formula. At September 30, 2015, the Company adjusted its derivative liability to its fair value, and reflected the change in fair value, in its consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss as gain (loss) on derivatives. Upon conversion of a note where the embedded conversion option has been bifurcated and accounted for as a derivative liability, the Company records the shares at fair value and relieves all related notes, derivatives and debt discounts and a net gain or loss on debt extinguishment is recorded.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from the services we provide in accordance with ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. ASC Topic 605 sets forth guidance as to when revenue is realized or realizable and earned, which is generally, when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been performed; (3) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Generally, the contract terms for these services are relatively short in duration.

We receive consideration in the form of cash and/or securities.

We recognize cash consideration as revenues as the services are performed either on a pro rata basis or on a milestone basis.

Securities received as consideration are often earned at a point in time when the specified event occurs and the securities are issued to us. Therefore, we measure and recognize these securities received at fair value on the date of receipt. If securities are received in advance of completion of our services, the fair value will be recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue as the services are completed.

All revenues are generated from clients whose operations are based outside of the United States.

At September 30, 2016, the Company had the following concentrations of accounts receivable with customers:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had the following concentrations of revenues with customers:

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue represents fees that have been received by the Company for requested services that have not been completed. Following table illustrates the movement in deferred revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2016:

Share-based Payments

The Company recognizes all forms of share-based payments to employees, including stock option grants, warrants and restricted stock grants at their fair value on the grant date, which is based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest.

Share based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-based payment, whichever is more readily determinable as of the measurement date. Amounts received prior to the measurement date are adjusted to fair value at each reporting period until a measurement date is achieved. The grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, which is generally the vesting period.

Share based payments, excluding restricted stock, are valued using a Black-Scholes pricing model.

When computing fair value, the Company considered the following variables:

Earnings per Share

The basic net earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period.

As at September 30, 2016, the Company had a common stock equivalent in the form of a fixed price convertible note, which, if exercisable, would be dilutive. See Note 7(D)

The Following table reconciles the dilutive weighted average number of shares outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2016:

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level. The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for prepaid expenses, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accounts payable to related parties and loans payable to related parties, approximate fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments.

The Company measures its derivative liabilities at fair market value on a recurring basis and measures its non-marketable securities at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Consequently, the Company may have gains and losses reported in the statement of operations.

The following is the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2), and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The following section describes the valuation methodologies the Company uses to measure financial instruments at fair value:

Marketable Securities — The Level 2 position consists of the Company’s investment in equity securities of stock held in publicly traded companies. The valuation of these securities is based on significant inputs that are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data. These valuations are typically based on quoted prices in active markets. The Company´s investments in equity securities are in relatively inactive markets.

Non-Marketable Securities at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis — Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The level 3 position consist of investments accounted for under the cost method. The Level 3 position consists of investments in equity securities held in private companies.

Management believes that an “other-than-temporary impairment” would be justified, as according to ASC 320-10 an investment is considered impaired when the fair value of an investment is less than its amortized cost basis. The impairment is considered either temporary or other-than-temporary. The accounting literature does not define other-than-temporary. It does, however, state that other-than-temporary does not mean permanent, although, all permanent impairments are considered other-than-temporary. The literature does provide some examples of factors, which may be indicative of an “other-than-temporary impairment”, such as:

Management believes that the fair value of its investment has been correctly measured, as the length of time that the stock has been less than cost is nominal.

Changes in Level 3 assets measured at fair value for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were as follows:

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the December 31, 2015 balance sheet have been reclassified to conform to the current period´s presentation. Accrued liabilities amounting to $184,656 were previously included in the accounts payable.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are no new accounting pronouncements that have any impact on the Company’s financial statements other than discussed below:

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-08,“Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net),” which makes targeted improvements to clarify the principal versus agent assessment and are intended to make the guidance more operable and lead to more consistent application. The amendments, however, do not eliminate the significant judgments related to principal versus agent assessments. This guidance is effective for calendar year-end in 2018 for interim and annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Balance Sheet.

In May 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which provides clarifying guidance in certain narrow areas and added some practical expedients. The standard and related amendments will be effective for financial statements issued by public companies for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, but not before the original date of financial statements issued by public companies for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We currently do not plan to early adopt this guidance and are evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements as well as transition methods.

Also, in the new note, there was an addition of a conversion option that the lender has right at any time after the exchange date until the outstanding balance has been paid in full, to convert all or any part of the outstanding balance into common shares of the Company at a fixed conversion price of $0.025. There was no beneficial conversion feature as the conversion price was higher than the current market value of the Company’s stock at that time. Since a conversion option was added to the note in the March 18, 2016 modification, this modification was accounted for as a debt extinguishment on that date and $25,200 was recognized as loss on debt extinguishment based on the quoted trading price of $0.0252 per share.

On April 28, 2016, St. George decided not to opt for converting the principal loan to common shares. Instead, on April 28, 2016, the Company renegotiated the loan terms, further extending the repayment to July 1, 2016. The terms of this further extension were a one-time 10% interest payment of $13,500 to be added to the principal of $135,000 and the issuance of 3,000,000 common shares. The Company accounted for this further extension as a debt extinguishment of previous extension dated March 18, 2016 and $58,200 was recognized as loss on debt extinguishment comprising of $13,500 of interest payment and $44,700 for issuance of 3,000,000 common shares of the Company valued at the quoted trading price of $0.0149 per share on the date of new exchange. (See Note 8 (b))

On July 1, 2016, after receipt of $148,500 from Mammoth Corporation (New Lender), St. George (Previous Lender) assigned and transferred to the Mammoth Corporation all of its rights, title and interest in and to the promissory note initially issued by the Company to St. George Investments LLC in the amount of $148,500 dated April 28, 2016. The Company re-negotiated the loan terms with new lender (Mammoth Corporation) after the above assignment and issued a restated 9 months convertible promissory note amounting to $163,350 dated July 01, 2016. The terms of this exchanged note were a one-time 10% increase in the principal loan of $14,850, making the principal sum from $148,500 to $163,350. The new lender also has a right, at any time after the issue date of revised note until the outstanding balance has been paid in full, to convert all or any part of the outstanding balance into common shares of the Company at a fixed conversion price of $0.017. Fair value of the Company’s stock as on the date of exchange was $0.0197. This indicated a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) of the Note as the conversion price is lower than the fair value of the Company’s stock as on July 01, 2016. The Company accounted for the difference arising due to BCF amounting to $25,944 as a debt discount with a corresponding effect to additional paid in capital. Interest on unpaid principal balance shall not accrue during the term of the note unless an event of default occurs. The Company accounted for this exchange as a debt extinguishment of previous note dated April 28, 2016 and $14,850 was further recognized as loss on debt extinguishment.

On September 16, 2016, the note holder decided to convert partial note balance amounting to $59,500 to the common shares of the Company at the contractual fixed price of $0.017 per share. As a result of this conversion, the Company issued 3,500,000 common shares to Mammoth Corporation.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the company amortized $14,948 of debt discount balance arising due to BCF, leaving un-amortized debt discount balance of $10,996 as of September 30, 2016. The outstanding convertible note balance amounted to $103,850 as of September 30, 2016.

The Company had revenues amounting to $306,962 and $1,130,465, for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The total revenue decreased by $823,503 due the fact that we received $675,450 in equity securities in a private company in exchange for services performed during the comparative three months ended September 30, 2015. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we didn’t receive any such equity securities which resulted in a decrease in revenues when compared to three months ended September 30, 2015. Following is the breakdown of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2016 which amounted to $306,962:

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, total operating expenses were reduced by $126,680 from the previous three months ending on September 30, 2015. The reason for this decrease is mainly due to the decrease in general & administrative expenses, salaries and professional services during the current three months ending on September 30, 2016.

All of our liabilities are current and mainly include third party debt which is due to four lenders, payable to related parties and our day to day operational creditors.

Following is the summary of all third party notes, net of debt discount, including the accrued interest as at September 30, 2016:

* Subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 2016, the April 29, 2016 note having a principal amount of $135,000 was fully repaid in cash on October 12, 2016.

Also, out of the cash fees received from different clients to date, the Company has deferred a total $225,000 from cash fees received from three clients. These deferred cash fees will be reflected on the Company´s income statement once certain milestones and contractual agreements have been completed.

At December 31, 2015, the Company had stockholders´ equity of $523,443. At September 30, 2016, the Company had stockholders´ equity of $1,471,605, which represents an increase of 181%.

The Company had 809,499,228 and 776,165,973 common shares issued and outstanding at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Our consolidated financial statements contained herein have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company had (loss) / income from operations of $(10,935) and $417,052 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively; a total other expenses amounting to $54,195 and $155,244 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively; and a net (loss) / income of $(65,130) and $261,808 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 respectively,.

The Company had $15,051 in cash; net cash used in operations of $251,661 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016; working capital deficit of $1,625,662 and stockholders´ equity of $1,471,605 as of September 30, 2016.

The ability of the Company to continue its operations is primarily dependent on:

While the Company´s current engagements are being consummated and executed, the Company may also resort to borrowing additional funds from certain related parties, such as management, and also third party funders some of which may be on a fixed price conversion basis to sustain the Company’s existence. In addition, in the event that operating cash flows are slowed, the Company would reduce its overhead wherever possible and any monies owed to the management can also be forgiven, if necessary. Such measures were taken on September 30, 2016 when the Company´s Board of Directors agreed to discontinue compensating the Company´s CEO for his personal rent allowance in Dubai.

It is the Company’s intention to expand its operations via the acquisition of companies that are in a similar space and industry as ours, and to date we have identified various companies that we would consider acquiring. However, we do not have any verbal or written agreements with anyone to provide us with debt financing.

Any short fall in our projected operating revenues will be covered by:

The Company´s deferred revenue, $225,000 at September 30, 2016, is non-refundable hence once certain contractual milestones are achieved or contractual terms pass over time, as applicable, on each individual engagement a proportion of deferred revenue will become revenue for the Company and therefore no cash outlays are required for these liabilities.

It is important to note that the two largest debts (The Able Foundation loan & Eden loan) stated on our current liabilities are non-collateralized and non-convertible loans this meaning that the Company has not given any form of guarantee to the lenders nor can the loans become convertible into common shares at any point in time.

The Company believes that it will receive certain contractually agreed cash success fees in the near future and also it is the Company´s intent to commence to liquidate certain investments on or before the year ended December 31, 2016 or early Q1 2017, these cash injections should provide sufficient cash flow to allow the Company to commence to pay off the third party debt and also allow the Company sufficient cash flow to continue to grow and expand in 2017 without having to resort to third party or affiliate loans. However, we cannot guarantee that such a cash injection will be readily available in a timely manner.

It is important to point out that for the purpose of improving the Company´s current and future liquidity position and also to mitigate the short term liabilities, $524,665 of management´s and certain employee´s accrued salaries were converted to common restricted stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The following table depicts the above mentioned conversions:

Finally, on November 11, 2016, the Company´s CEO, CFO and Managing Director jointly decided to retire an aggregate of 450,000,000 of their personally owned Common Shares in exchange for 45,000,000 Series “B” Preferred shares. As a result of this retirement and exchange, the Company´s issued and outstanding Common Shares were drastically reduced from 819,499,228 to a total of 369,499,228.

Our specific plan of operations and milestones through November 2017 are as follows:

To date, we have 18 clients under contract around the globe that we currently deem to be active clients that are either seeking a listing on a Stock Exchange or OTC Bulletin Board and/or are seeking capital funding for acquisition, growth and expansion:

We currently are relying on introductions to potential clients by the following firms in the Middle East, South East Asia, Europe and the US:

We intend to develop relationships with a further six “introducers” to potential new business for the Company within the next 12 months.

During next 12 months, we believe that we have the capacity to sign at least another 12 new clients in various sectors and located around the globe.

We will continue to establish a firm presence in Dubai, UAE where we are attracting clients, relationships and awareness. Our Dubai operation is currently a branch office of the Company allowing us a license to trade in the area. This branch office will continue to recruit new members of staff that will allow us to grow and become more efficient in Dubai.

We will continue to establish a firm presence in South East Asia where we are attracting clients, relationships and awareness.

We intend to form relationships with merger and acquisition specialists during the next 12 months, which will hopefully enable us to:

Commencing initially with one member, we will start to develop a proprietary program allowing us to easily monitor a client’s development status and work in progress. We will also use this tool to manage our pipeline of clients and, therefore, it will become vital in our cash flow forecasting.

The Company created an in-house human resources department called “Kingsman James” (http://kingsmanjames.com) with a view to be able to provide its existing clients and other new clients with the possibility of restructuring their companies’ management with seasoned professionals, if required. We intend to continue expanding this human resources department throughout the next 12 months.

During the next 12 months, we intend to substantially expand our Middle Eastern, South East Asian and also our US networks in order to enable us to make introductions on a more institutional level. At present, we are being received with open arms by all of the financial communities with whom we have contact; hence, we have plans to host various hospitality events for our current clients, our key contacts and upper management of the Company.

We intend to take our consultancy service outside of the Middle East and Europe and into Asia and Sri Lanka. We will expand on a “Commission Only” basis for the individuals or companies who take on our service to offer to their clients. Accountants, lawyers and finance professionals are the target market for overlaying our service into their existing client banks in return for a percentage of fees received. We also intend to add at least two new members to our administration team during the next 12 months.

We will continue working on different “Road shows” in Dubai, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, South East Asia and the USA.

We intend to cement the relationships created. The target markets for attracting clients are: Thailand, Sri Lanka, China, Hong Kong and Singapore. To service the clients generated from these markets, we will spend time creating a network of service companies who we can utilize to assist us on a local basis. We will explore the possibilities of dual listings for our clients in Singapore to allow us a local market for any Asian clients we will attract and giving the Company a firm foothold in the Asian territory.

The Company intends to acquire a certain number of United Kingdom based Financial Advisory Firms with Funds under Management.

Due to our growing UK and Central European based clientele and also due to our plan to acquire a certain number of UK based financial advisory firms with funds under management, we plan to open a new UK based office within the next 6 months.
