DLA MANAGEMENT CONSULTANCY FZCO
DLA Management Consultancy FZCO supports founders, professionals and families who operate between Dubai and Europe. Discreet, practical and execution-focused – so your attention can stay on deals, not details.
No call centres, no ticketing systems. One point of contact who knows your structure, timelines and non-negotiables – and who handles the follow-up.
Every situation is different. The work typically sits at the intersection of company formation, banking, practical follow-through and ongoing coordination between Dubai and Europe.
Guidance and coordination around the practical side of setting up or refining your structure in Dubai – from the first conversation to the documents actually being in place.
Support around preparing, submitting and following up on bank onboarding – especially when there are multiple shareholders, cross-border links or existing structures.
Ensuring that signatures, attestations, registrations and renewals actually happen on time, and that everyone involved has the same version of the truth.
Many clients keep business interests in Europe. DLA helps align what happens in Dubai with what your accountant, notary or tax advisor expects back home.
Some clients use DLA as a lightweight private office for a family or partnership with shared assets in and around Dubai.
After the initial setup, many relationships continue on a retainer or light-touch basis, focused on renewals, updates and new projects as they appear.
The emphasis is on clarity, calm execution and protecting your time. No heavy slides, just clear steps, realistic timelines and regular, concise updates.
A confidential conversation to understand where you are today, the role Dubai plays in your plans and what you need to see handled over the next 6–18 months.
Together we translate that into a simple, written outline: entities, banks, advisors and the key decisions to be made – with pros and cons in plain English.
DLA then coordinates the practical work with your chosen service providers, keeping you updated only when decisions or signatures are needed.
Once everything is in place, the focus shifts to renewals, changes and new projects – always with an eye on keeping your structure coherent.
DLA is intentionally small. Clients work directly with the founder, not an account team. The focus is on long-term, trust-based relationships where context compounds over time.
Axe has spent decades as an entrepreneur, operator and partner to other founders. With roots in the Netherlands and a base in Dubai, he understands both the opportunity and the practical friction that comes with building a life across jurisdictions.
DLA grew out of helping a small circle of peers structure and maintain their Dubai presence in a way that felt calm, clear and aligned with how they already operate elsewhere.
