For owner-managers, boards and investors
With responsibilitycomes calm.
We take responsibility for your entire financial function, from day-to-day operations to the decisions that define you. One dedicated partner who knows the business, backed by specialists in accounting, tax and transactions.
Our work begins where the numbers end.
We act as the finance function and strategic advisor to owner-managers, investors, growth companies and international groups. We take responsibility for the finances as a whole, and with responsibility comes what clients value most: calm.
We have no ambition to be the biggest. We measure ourselves by who we work with, not how many. Most of our clients come to us on the recommendation of those we already advise.
Summ is not for everyone. It was never meant to be.

About Summ · Why we exist
We exist because a life's work deserves an advisor who takes responsibility.
Summ was founded in 2014 by an accountant and a CFO. The precision of detail and the overview of strategy. The combination was no accident. It is our entire foundation: the accounts must be flawless, and that is only the beginning.
We have seen what it costs owner-managers to stand alone with the big decisions. That is why we build relationships that last. Several of our clients have been with us since our very first year.
We want to be the house you choose when it matters.
