#working in corporate finance is not for the weak

The rush of relief when I get an invite for a call which I do not understand but I’m put in as “optional” 💪🏻

YOU NEED PEOPLE LIKE ME / DARK PSYCHOLOGY

You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your f*****’ fingers and say, “That’s the bad guy.” So what that make you? Good? You’re not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie.

(Tony Montana, Scarface)

Most people can not handle their darker side. They can not handle their ego and their deepest desires. Now, I'm not telling you to become like Tony Montana. He was consumed by his vices and they run the show for him. I'm telling you to do what you what to do and to stop lying to yourself and hiding from your true nature.

A couple of years ago, I met a girl who had an obsession with finding a wealthy man. She did not care about anything else other than the money. In her defense, she grew up in a poor family where, her dad beat her mom up and he even did that while her mom was pregnant with her.

That girl was studying finance. She took up Arabic and wanted to work for off shore companies where she could find a husband. She specifically told me she wanted her husband to drive a Porsche which has more prestige than a BMW and buy her a BMW cause the woman should be beneath her husband. Overall she was "micey" in character. If you didn't know her you would think she was shy and religious, but. you should know better guys, these people have more ego problems than the most outspoken, egomaniac extrovert.

So, she looked "weak" but had an agenda. She also was trying to give off the "trad wife" vibe but salivated as soon as a man breathed her direction and shamed any woman who showcased her seductiveness.

A few days ago, she messaged me. She wanted to grab a coffee with me as she would be in town. I was surprised when I saw her. In the "kindest" way I can put it, she looked like women who run on every single rally around and fight for justice (nothing wrong with taht, but if you're following me I bet you get what I'm trying to convey). A white girl with Bob Marley braids! Yup, there it is!

She told me she had given up Arabic and no longer wanted to work in a big shipping corporation because that supported big oil and their agenda. She then preached to me about equality and why the left is supreme. Now, I'm pretty straightforward so I asked her, how and why her views changed. She wanted to own 3 cars and be a stay at home mom! She looked outside the window of the coffee shop and saw my parked car.

"Do you see this car?"

I said "Yeah, I see it."

"Whoever drives this car is a right wing egomaniac who doesn't care about the environment and just wants to flaunt their money." (my car is a hybrid you guys!)

"Do you drive?"

"No, I can not afford a license and my family owns only one car. Also, I'm scared of driving. Also, did I tell you I'm running on the elections with the *left wing side*. Will you vote for me? If I make it I'll get 2k per month plus health care benefits."

"That's my car. I was going to ask you, do you want to take the train home or will you ride with me?" I just wanted this meeting to bo over, to tell you the truth.

She came with me.

Wanna know why? Here is my hypothesis (and it ties in with Tony Montana's words):

99% of people give up on their dreams by age 23. In order to make it easier for them and help them soothe the guilt this breeds, they begin to drift to the opposite "side" of the court. Pornstars turn to trad wives. Playboys turn to "faithful" husbands who preach the word of the Lord. Money and power hungry individuals take up boring jobs and blame the rich and the goverment for everything. Men who can not pick up women turn to red pill guys and so on and so forth.

Most people can not handle their darker side. They can not handle their ego and their deepest desires. Now, I'm not telling you to become like Tony Montana, he was consumed by his vices and that's who runs the show. Either you run the show or someone else or something (an addiction) runs it for you.

We see all that often with sex. Body counts, "I can not find a good man/woman" etc. People who can not get what they want hate those that have the GUTS to get it.

If my acquaintance's beliefs are that strong why did she enjoy the drive in the luxury SUV? Why did she then ask me when are we going out again and if I can bring "that" guy friend who runs a tech start up?

Because they are not her beliefs. They are just a cover up. A mask.

We've all seen how happy some people get when a dreamer fails.

So, go one. Fail. You''ll succeed at some point. You're better than those who sit on the sidelines running their mouth.

They would want to be at your shoes. They would want to run free on the court.

Own that. Own yourself and run after your goals and desires. Fuck them.

[superoffbatter]

some people might be curious about @thegreatyin's parahumans AU so here it is.

So. let's start with the Scoundrel's Trigger Event.

"Changer triggers are provoked by a crisis of identity. A large number of triggers have this to some degree, because such triggers are often an eye opening experience as to just how small or weak one actually is in a given situation, but in such cases, the changer power is limited to faint aesthetics or the physiological shift to accommodate the flow of the power. In practice, a true changer power has the crisis of identity, often with social pressure or external pressures forcing the crisis, and a distinct shift from one identity to another. The nature of this shift, the shape of the crisis and the past and forced identity help determine the resulting power."

The aesthetic is, of course, "bat." But why bat? Bats fly. That's the thing they do. so that's Mover. Bats hide in caves. So that's Stranger.

They want to *escape,* that's important. The Scoundrel wants to escape from themselves.

Escape from themselves, and from the emptiness of their previous life.

So the Scoundrel is, at first, the Yearner. They are a quaint little person in a quaint little job as an university professor. Literature. A simple life. It doesn't pay all that well but it pays enough with what relative success they have, barely enough to live a normal life.

They hate it. They don't like themselves, they don't like their job, they don't like anything about their life. They feel trapped in the wrong skin.

They eventually fall into the orbit of the supervillain group known as the Masters. Initially taking a minor job for Mr Wines (in this case, likely something simple; lying to the cops, taking something in a location and giving it back at a later date) and later working as henchwoman. First out of a need for money, but the Masters' ostentatious and showy lifestyle eventually put the idea in her head that they were what she wanted to be. That they were perfect; they certainly present this idea to other people as part of the Show; everything is a show, it's a matter of style when it comes to supervillains.

The then-Yearner steadily discards their life. They neglect their job. They neglect their appearance in their day life. They neglect their sleep. They steadily give more to the Masters in persuit of this thrill, of the lifestyle they're selling. They look up to the Masters as truly free and having a purpose, unlike themselves.

To understand her trigger, obviously, we need to get to the person that inspired it.

Mr Wines, the Fallen

Mr Wines is the famous CEO of a notorious corporation. Something that draws the eyes of all. They are at the top of the world. The richest of the rich. Luxurious. Ostentatious. Their economic influence spreads halfway across the globe. He can snap his fingers and topple a nation. He can wave a hand and have a city crushed.

Then the fall.

An Enron scandal. Fraud. Massive fraud. Massive fraud everywhere. Lies stacked in top of lies. When it started, it had money behind it. It's inherited wealth, Mr Wines is old money, they're confident, they're charismatic. But at some point it rotted from the inside. A critical supplier taken down by an Endbringer attack. They could have taken the L, they could have admitted they'd have to reorganize and take a hit to their profit margins.

But they couldn't, could they? Instead they promised more. They promised more, to stay at the top of the world. This was an opportunity! A critical manufacturer taken down, yeah, yeah, this just means the market's opened up. We'll invest in this area ourselves and fill up the empty space!

(Of course, they couldn't. That sort of thing is always a risk.)

More holes started opening in the company's finances. Over the course of a few years, they take more risks and promise more. More risks. Some of them pay off. This just means they have to keep doubling down, right? Mr Wines goes from thinking that they have to roll the die to keep the company afloat to delusionally believing every single thing they throw money at will pay off.

They gave their word, after all.

They throw lavish parties with the huge bonuses they grant themselves and drink. They drink and drink and drink and keep their mind on the Moment. Look at all this gold and glory. Look at all of this. Isn't it beautiful? Forget everything else, this is where it's at.

It all falls apart, eventually. The company comes under fire. The greatest scandal in a decade, fraud stacked on fraud to cover for the fact that all the money went up in smoke. The investors fall on them like a pack of vultures. They sell everything, their mansion, their expensive collection of wines, but it's not enough, it'll never be enough to pay the debts. They fake their death but they're discovered. They're facing jail time. They stare at the bottle of whiskey in their hands. Shitty whiskey. The cheapest they could find.

The trigger comes from many mixed emotions, but the chiefest of them is that they are never going to be at the top again.

Mr Wines' power could be called Solar Flare. It is a Breaker/Shaker 9, Blaster/Mover 7 power. It allows them to, for extremely limited amounts of time, turn into a solar-inspired superpowered form. This form is nigh-impossible to deal lasting damage to, with the sheer heat radiating off its form melting the ground and causing your skin to boil, and it causing temporary blindness just off the glow. It is extremely physically strong, agile and capable of short-range teleportation (with them exploding into flame on both ends of the teleport) aside from being capable of achieving supersonic flight speeds. It can conjure a wide array of powerful effects such as laser blasts, bursts, waves and balls of fire or even simply point at a spot or person and immediately have it explode in cleansing fire.

To mantain this form, it takes not only effort but an increasing cooldown and amount of discomfort inflicted later to their regular form. This "hangover" led Mr Wines to use his power extremely often and irresponsibly, then indulge in alcohol to both waste time until the cooldown ends and they can be at the top of the world again and also to deal with the chronic pain the constant power abuse inflicts.

Mr Wines never really had a post-trigger identity; the Echo Bazaar's secretary, Penstock (an unpowered but highly competent accountant), wanted to draw them into their burgeoning criminal organization for their name and as a possible source of blackmail on other corporate executives, and was pleasantly surprised to find that they came with an extraordinarily strong power as well.

And with this, we return to...

Mr Cards, the Fledgling

The Yearner's trigger is closely connected to Mr Wines' own powers. The first thing to note is that they are a spindly literature teacher; while they might have figured out how to shoot a gun, they are not actually suited for the ruthless environment of gang fights despite steadily feeding every fragment of their time to it.

The reason they are even there is because the Masters are, in fact, not nearly as competent as they might seem; despite their pretensions at scariness and their stacked roster of incredibly strong parahumans, the fact that they are constantly at each other's throats has prevented them from rising to the level of groups like the Elite and the Gesellschaft; they are, at best, a middling group with tenuous control of a bunch of chunks of territory spread across three to six cities and who is constantly scrambling to not lose this control.

As such, they face a constant need for more henchmen and a high turnover rate, and the image the Yearner has of them could ultimately not be any less true.

In the end, this image leads to their almost death. A simple operation goes awry due to an ongoing argument between Mr Wines and Mr Veils; their petty power struggle leads the Protectorate to come knocking as their shouting match could be heard from miles away. This leads the Yearner to have to take part in a fight with multiple PRT agents almost by her lonesome; the two Masters are busy confronting the heroes (and losing because they can't cooperate). A stray bullet nails her in the chest and she bleeds out in the ground; all she can see as she lays down dying is how magnificent Wines' powered form is. How she wishes she could be like this- someone who can rise and take control of their life, someone who is free, who isn't uncomfortable in their own skin.

So, she triggers.

Mr Cards is a Changer 7, Brute 5, Trump 6 who can shapeshift into a batlike form, taking aspects of nearby parahumans while she does so. The form is inspired by their own beliefs on these parahumans' powers and takes some of these for itself. The bat form is more difficult to manifest if there aren't any parahumans nearby, with it being drastically weaker while doing so.

As said before, the batform's powers are not the actual powers copied, but rather secondary-power versions influenced by the Scoundrel's own thoughts of what those powers are; based on whether or not they underestimate or overestimate the actual parahuman, they can be vastly downgraded or end up losing all their actual downsides.

After their initial trigger, the Scoundrel erupted out of their body, sending both her allies unconscious in a power backlash, and used parts of both Veils and Wines' powers to defeat the heroes and make way for an escape. Wines and Veils took the unconscious and still bleeding out Scoundrel to their nearest safehouse, where Veils nursed them back to health while Wines went back to its secret identity to get drunk as soon as possible.

Cards was swiftly inducted into the Masters, but their naked adoration of the villainous group led to them essentially becoming their servant, never quite treated as a fully fledged member of the organization. They took to this with gusto, arranging a fake murder with Veils' help to end their identity as the Yearner for once and for all, assuming a new life.

Mr Veils, the Beast

Despite Cards' wishes that it was Wines, it's in fact Veils who drives her into the organization's clutches.

Mr Veils was a very violent person even before her trigger. This is also true for Mr Iron and most likely Mr Stones, but unlikely Iron's possible PMC past and Stones' cutthroat criminal past, Veils was both a serial killer and a socialite.

She was never caught by the police; being, in fact, very good at he3r job, the murderess covered her tracks quite well. With the product of their killings and a couple of well-applied knives to the back, the middle-class serial killer found herself in high society, most likely in the fashion business; another thing that she was genuinely good at.

However, at some point, her past was wielded against her; not in the sense of legal action, but as blackmail. This is part of a long-running problem of her being belittled and underestimated thanks to a middle-class background; she hates it. She hates this place just as much as she loves it. The mask slips a bit. She gets more sloppy with her killings, using them to leak her frustration more and more. A string of brutal murders eventually catches the eyes of a rival; a rival that she was herself planning to honeypot and murder. The rival guesses her intentions ahead, pretends to fall in love and turns it on her during a party, she can't not go.

She is cornered in a room and held at gunpoint by her own lover- with a folder full of evidence and a contract.

"Sign over your business or I'll leak this." she hears. It's a classic.

The fear in her heart is only overwhelmed by burning-hot rage. She wants to disappear. She wants to scream about everything she's put up with for him, she knows it won't be sincere. She knows she was using him, but she is also furious at herself for not having seen this coming, for being so stupid and blind. She wishes to disappear, to be anywhere but here; she rages at not being accepted, with wanting to be someone else, with no one understanding her or wanting to understand, loneliness and being distanced. Violent impulses kept leashed and stuffed inside her.

After a grisly murder scene in a locked room, a mansion full of the hacked apart corpses of socialites and wealthy businessowners. Something with long wings and sharp claws takes flight.

Mr Veils is a Stranger 4, Changer/Brute 7, Thinker 4, Master 4 - you could call her power, quite simply, The Vake. It allows her to draw on the fears of other people; manifesting a monstrous, ethereal form made entirely out of these subconscious fears. She can draw on specific fears on the victinity to take more conscious control of her shape and can also sense them pre-emptively, absorbing and storing them; the strongest fear she can sense is the fear of her, a fear that she finds especially nourishing. It is also possible to "hone" in a target and form a mental link with them, drawing their fears more actively and receiving more information then normal, but she is limited to only one mental link at a time- one target.

The fear-form is not only ghostly but semi-transparent and diffuse to those who don't know the fears who went into it in a personal basis. If you are not one of the individuals whose fears went into its creation, it is easy to misjudge distances or shapes and miss a blow when you're fighting it. It's difficult to accurately nail down where it is or which of its limbs is moving. If you are one of those individuals, the effect steadily transforms into a fear aura that causes you to have more fear to be absorbed, and the fear of the Vake itself causes it to "refine" into a more dangerous and powerful creature. However, the Vake requires "expenditure" of fear; Veils can store it long-term, but not forever, and thus she needs to keep causing fear if she wants to have her power burn at full strength.

She wandered the United States as a freelance hitwoman, going for the intended use of her power; getting involved with parahumans out of costume (thanks to her genuine talent in information gathering and espionage) under a fake identity, honing a form made out of their fears and built specifically to gnaw at their hearts. After each job, skip town, run and go to the next.

She is eventually made an offer by a certain parahuman associated with the Bazaar, The Lady of Lilac, and brought into the organization.

After the initial Cards trigger event, Veils realized a complex power synergy. While using aspects from her own power in his own Changer shape, the Scoundrel inherited her current form, not the entire power; this meant that they got all her strength, agility and fear aura without having to concern themselves with fear-gathering. While initially annoyed, she also realized that they inspired great fear around themselves, fears that she could draw on, and most importantly, fears that counted as fears of the Vake. Not only this, but forming a mindlink with Cards led to a consistent source of fear of her. So, well. A partnership was well-received; the little girl seemed eager to prove herself. It was a match made in heaven.

I agree with you about olden time/ game of thrones powerful people particularly women being portrayed as weak and subordinate even though traditionally these ladies had a lot of power particularly if they are widows or mothers or daughters of rich powerful feudal families. They will lie, harm and ruthlessly walk over anyone irrespective of gender to put their families forward. Tv series and movies these days have this shallow and at sometimes dumb idea that just because the queen is a women she has no power against a male courtier who is way lower in power due to class. And they make it about feminism when it's not.

Also i have noticed that they keep women who have traditional views on the world to be conveniently lesbians when they are just mostly uninterested or don't want to risk their children's position by remarrying or they don't believe in remarrying because they are loyal to their spouses. Or they have a different valid world view where not everything has to be about the baser instincts. Platonic courtly love is relevant too.

The great misunderstanding of history is the idea that women - in general - weren't allowed to do anything at any time.

They conflate the ruling class to all classes.

A peasant woman in the countryside and city was expected to help her family in anyway possible. That meant running a store, or running a farm, doing accounting books for the house or business. She is expected to be working out in the fields with her brothers or husband. No one batted an eye at a woman doing a serious job, because, people's lives were hard, very hard. Being idle, having food, was a luxury that no one but the very elite could afford.

I guarantee you a poor woman who has to help her husband or father in the field, do the washing, and see to dinner with four babes to look after, would love to be sitting in a drawing room and waiting for a future husband.

And even then, a rich, titled, woman was expected to run a house. That's not a ceremonial position. You have to plan out meals and menus for the week with the Cook, you have to see to the inventory of linins and material with the Housekeeper, and you have to keep the finances and books for the entire Household and Estate. You have to oversee the hiring and firing of staff. You have to make sure that your servants are fed and properly clothed. You also have to make sure that the social order of the county or your holdings are up to snuff - that women and children are having an adequate life under your rule and solve domestic problems that affect them day to day.

Women have always had very important jobs in society and within families throughout history. It simply that modern women have so much less responsibility than women back then had. We have a shocking amount ease and comfort these days that most women look back and think that the female responsibly back then is some sort of slave labor or sexism, when, in reality, it was the vital to the survival of a family and society.

It's always strange to me when a modern woman sees a Homemaker, or any sort of traditional female role in action and think that they're slaves to their husband or "the patriarchy" ... but then think that giving eight-to-ten hours of your life to a multi-billion dollar corporation is some sort of empowerment. Nor how they realize that said corporation isn't paying them half the wage that men got back then ... not because they're sexist, but because the job market is now over stuffed and saturated due to women being told that being mothers and housewives is slavery and that they must go into the work place and give their lives to a soulless corporation.

Making Wise Decisions About Subject Choices | NewAge World School

Introduction

Deciding on which subjects to pursue in Class 11 is one of the most important decisions a student has to make. It’s a crossroads that often sets the stage for future career paths and personal growth. While some students seem to have it all figured out, many others find themselves struggling with this critical choice. This is why making wise decisions about subject choices is not just about picking what looks appealing but also about understanding your skills, interests, and long-term goals.

In this article, we’ll explore how to approach this decision with a clear mind and a strong sense of direction. From career guidance after Class 10 to understanding the importance of career planning for high school students, this blog will help you navigate through this challenging yet exciting phase.

Choosing Your Stream After Class 10

For most students, the journey begins right after finishing their Class 10 board exams. On the one hand, there’s relief from exams; on the other, there’s the stress of choosing the right stream. Parents, friends, and teachers often weigh in with their opinions, but remember, this is your decision. Choosing your stream isn’t just about the present—it’s about aligning your interests and abilities with your career goals for students.

This is the first step toward building the foundation for your future. Making the wrong choice can feel overwhelming, but the good news is that with the right guidance and a bit of introspection, you can make a decision that works best for you.

Step 1: Reflect on Your Interests and Skills

By now, you’ve had enough time during Classes 8, 9, and 10 to explore various subjects. Think about what you enjoy studying the most. Is there a subject that excites you more than others? Or one that feels effortless even when you put in minimal effort? These clues can help you determine where your strengths lie.

Ask yourself:

Do I enjoy solving problems in math and science?

Am I more drawn to understanding human behavior or social systems?

Do I find the concepts of finance and business fascinating?

Understanding your strengths and weaknesses is crucial when it comes to choosing the right stream in Class 10. This decision isn’t about what’s “easier” but what aligns with your skills and aspirations.

Step 2: Identify Your Career Goals

While it may seem too early to decide on a career, having a rough idea of your future aspirations can help you make smarter subject choices. Think about where you see yourself in five or ten years. Would you prefer working in a structured corporate environment, or are you drawn to creative and flexible roles? Asking these questions will help you decide whether science vs commerce vs humanities is better suited for you.

For instance:

If you’re passionate about innovation and problem-solving, the science stream might be a good fit.

If you’re intrigued by markets, finance, and entrepreneurship, commerce could be the way to go.

If you love literature, history, and understanding human societies, the humanities stream may be ideal.

Having clarity about your career goals for students helps in avoiding confusion and choosing a stream that paves the way for your desired profession.

Step 3: Explore the Streams Available

Each stream offers unique opportunities and challenges. Understanding what each stream entails can help you make an informed choice.

Science Stream

The science stream includes subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics. It’s often chosen by students aiming for careers in engineering, medicine, or research. If you’re fascinated by how things work or aspire to be a doctor or scientist, this might be your path.

Commerce Stream

The commerce stream covers Business Studies, Economics, and Accounts. It’s perfect for students interested in careers like chartered accountancy, marketing, or entrepreneurship. The inclusion of Applied Mathematics as an elective further broadens career opportunities in analytics and data-driven roles.

Humanities Stream

The humanities stream offers subjects like Psychology, Political Science, and Sociology. It’s great for students who love exploring human behavior, cultures, and governance. Careers in journalism, law, civil services, and creative fields often stem from this stream.

Pro Tip: If you’re confused about science vs commerce vs humanities, list your favorite subjects and see which stream aligns best.

Step 4: Research New Subject Areas

While you may be familiar with subjects like math, science, and social studies, Class 11 introduces new areas like Psychology, Economics, or Entrepreneurship. Take time to explore these options. Research what these subjects involve and consider talking to seniors or teachers who can give insights about the coursework.

For example:

Psychology helps you understand human behavior and is ideal for careers in counseling, HR, or therapy.

Economics combines theory and practical knowledge, leading to careers in banking, policy-making, or business.

Entrepreneurship encourages creative thinking and is perfect for those planning to start their own ventures.

Being open to new subjects can broaden your perspective and may even introduce you to your true passion.

Step 5: Look Ahead to College and Career Opportunities

Your decision about subjects in Class 11 is closely linked to your future education and career path. Research colleges or universities you aspire to join and see what courses they offer. Knowing the eligibility criteria can help you make better decisions.

For example:

Top engineering colleges require strong grades in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics.

Renowned business schools often look for a background in Commerce with a solid understanding of economics and math.

By aligning your subject choices with your career options for students after Class 10, you ensure that you’re prepared for competitive exams and higher studies.

Step 6: Seek Career Guidance

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, seek career guidance after Class 10. Speak with teachers, career counselors, or professionals in your areas of interest. Their insights can provide clarity and help you navigate through the uncertainty.

Remember, this decision is yours to make. While it’s good to consider advice, don’t let others choose for you. At the end of the day, only you know what works best for your aspirations and abilities.

Hard Work is Key to Success

No matter which streams you choose, success ultimately depends on your dedication and effort. Even the best career options after Class 10 require consistent hard work and determination. Whether you’re solving complex equations in the science stream or analyzing market trends in commerce, giving your best will lead to rewarding outcomes.

Conclusion

Making wise decisions about subject choices isn’t just about the present; it’s about shaping your future. By understanding your interests, exploring career opportunities, and seeking guidance, you can make an informed choice that aligns with your long-term goals.

Remember, there’s no single “right” choice. Whether you opt for science, commerce, or humanities, every stream offers unique opportunities for growth and success. The key is to stay true to yourself and approach this decision with clarity and confidence.

Take charge of your future today—because your journey starts now!

The Importance of External Audits in Kuwait

What Is an External Audit?

An external audit involves an independent examination of a company’s financial records and operations by a third-party auditor. Unlike internal audits, which are conducted by in-house teams, external audits are carried out by professional firms or auditors who have no vested interest in the organization.

The goal of an external audit is to:

Verify the accuracy of financial statements.

Ensure compliance with local and international accounting standards, such as IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards).

Detect any material misstatements or fraudulent activities.

Provide stakeholders with assurance about the company’s financial health.

Why External Audits Are Essential in Kuwait

Regulatory Compliance

Kuwait’s Ministry of Commerce and Industry mandates that companies operating in the country adhere to strict financial reporting standards. External audits ensure compliance with these regulations, reducing the risk of penalties or legal complications.

Building Stakeholder Confidence

Investors, lenders, and business partners rely on audited financial statements to make informed decisions. An external audit enhances credibility and demonstrates that your business is financially sound.

Fraud Prevention and Detection

External audits can uncover irregularities, fraudulent activities, or weak internal controls, helping organizations address issues before they escalate.

Facilitating Business Growth

Whether you’re seeking funding, entering a new market, or considering a merger, having audited financial statements is often a prerequisite for negotiations and partnerships.

Tax Compliance and Efficiency

External auditors ensure that companies in Kuwait meet their tax obligations, such as corporate income tax and Zakat contributions, while identifying opportunities for better tax planning.

The External Audit Process in Kuwait

Engagement and Planning

The audit firm defines the scope of work, identifies key objectives, and collects preliminary data about the organization’s financial activities.

Risk Assessment

Auditors evaluate the company’s internal controls, financial systems, and potential areas of risk that could impact financial reporting.

Evidence Collection

Through sampling, confirmations, and analytical procedures, auditors gather evidence to validate the accuracy of financial records.

Review and Reporting

Auditors analyze findings, prepare a comprehensive report, and provide an audit opinion, which can be:

Unqualified (Clean): Financial statements are accurate and comply with standards.

Qualified: Issues exist, but they are not pervasive.

Adverse: Financial statements are materially misstated.

Disclaimer: Insufficient evidence to form an opinion.

Recommendations

Auditors often provide insights on improving internal controls and operational efficiencies.

Choosing the Right External Auditor in Kuwait

When selecting an external auditor, businesses should consider the following:

Accreditation and Reputation

Ensure the firm is licensed and has a proven track record in conducting audits for companies in Kuwait.

Industry Expertise

Choose an auditor familiar with your industry to address sector-specific challenges effectively.

Global vs. Local Perspective

Depending on your needs, you may opt for global firms like PwC, Deloitte, KPMG, or EY, or reputable local audit firms such as Al-Fahad & Co. or Grant Thornton Kuwait.

Comprehensive Services

Look for firms that offer additional services, such as tax advisory or risk management, for a holistic approach to financial health.

External Audits in Key Sectors of Kuwait

Oil and Gas: Given Kuwait’s reliance on this industry, external audits help companies maintain transparency in operations, contracts, and revenue management.

Banking and Finance: Financial institutions require regular external audits to comply with Central Bank regulations and safeguard customer trust.

SMEs: For small and medium enterprises, external audits provide a pathway to secure loans, attract investors, and grow sustainably.

Real Estate: With significant investments in this sector, audits ensure accurate valuation, revenue recognition, and compliance with local laws.

Challenges and Opportunities

While external audits are essential, businesses in Kuwait may face challenges such as:

Cost Implications: Smaller companies might find audit fees burdensome, though the long-term benefits outweigh the costs.

Documentation Readiness: Organizations need to maintain accurate and well-organized financial records to facilitate smooth audits.

Adapting to Changes: Frequent updates in local and international financial regulations require businesses to stay informed and adaptable.

On the flip side, the growing emphasis on governance and transparency in Kuwait presents opportunities for companies to improve their financial practices and build stronger relationships with stakeholders.

Conclusion

external audits in Kuwait are a critical tool for businesses in Kuwait, offering a clear picture of financial health, ensuring regulatory compliance, and fostering trust. By partnering with the right audit firm and embracing the process as a value-adding activity, organizations can enhance their reputation, identify growth opportunities, and safeguard their future in an increasingly complex business landscape.

In Kuwait’s dynamic economy, external audits are not just about meeting legal obligations—they’re about laying the foundation for long-term success.

Ethical Hacking and Its Relevance in Computer Science.

In today’s interconnected world, where everything from shopping to banking happens online, protecting data and systems from cyber threats has become crucial. As technology advances, so do the risks. This is where ethical hacking comes in—a field dedicated to protecting systems by identifying vulnerabilities before malicious hackers can exploit them.

We prepare our students in computer science and artificial intelligence with practical knowledge of ethical hacking and cybersecurity, emphasizing its significance in the tech world. We will discuss what ethical hacking is, how it differs from malicious hacking, and why it’s relevant in computer science today.

What is Ethical Hacking?

Ethical hacking, also known as "white-hat hacking," involves legally and responsibly breaking into computer systems, networks, and applications to discover and fix security flaws. Ethical hackers use the same skills as malicious hackers, but instead of exploiting systems, they aim to identify and patch vulnerabilities.

To put it simply, ethical hackers work as digital detectives, ensuring that systems are secure and resilient against attacks. They play a proactive role in protecting sensitive information, personal data, and critical infrastructure from unauthorized access.

Why Ethical Hacking Matters in Computer Science

As cyber threats become more sophisticated, the need for ethical hacking in computer science grows. Ethical hackers are crucial in fields like:

Cybersecurity: Ethical hackers are on the frontline, helping secure networks and prevent data breaches.

Software Development: By testing software for vulnerabilities, ethical hackers make applications safer before they go live.

Data Protection: Ethical hackers protect valuable data from theft, ensuring privacy and compliance with regulations.

Ethical hacking is essential for keeping up with rapid advancements in digital technology and ensuring that the devices and applications we rely on daily are safe.

Types of Ethical Hacking

Ethical hacking is a diverse field, and professionals often specialize in different types of hacking to address various security needs:

Network Hacking: This involves identifying security issues in networks (like corporate networks) to prevent unauthorized access.

Web Application Hacking: Web applications, like e-commerce platforms and social media sites, often have vulnerabilities that ethical hackers assess to protect user data.

Wireless Network Hacking: Ethical hackers ensure that wireless networks (like Wi-Fi) are protected from unauthorized access, as unprotected wireless networks are a common target for attackers.

Social Engineering: This type focuses on hacking human psychology rather than systems. Ethical hackers may perform controlled “phishing” attempts to check if employees are susceptible to giving away sensitive information.

Cryptography Testing: Ethical hackers work with cryptography to test encryption techniques and ensure that data remains confidential during storage and transmission.

The Ethical Hacker’s Toolkit

Ethical hackers use specialized tools to test and secure systems, some of which are widely known in the tech industry:

Nmap: A network discovery and security auditing tool.

Metasploit: A penetration testing framework that allows hackers to test systems for vulnerabilities.

Wireshark: A network protocol analyzer used to capture and inspect data packets.

Burp Suite: Often used to test web applications for security flaws.

John the Ripper: A password cracking tool that helps ethical hackers identify weak passwords.

These tools help ethical hackers simulate real-world attacks, identify vulnerabilities, and propose solutions to fortify systems.

Real-World Applications of Ethical Hacking

Ethical hacking plays a key role in protecting various sectors. Here are a few areas where it’s applied:

Banking and Finance: Ethical hackers prevent unauthorized access to financial data and ensure safe transactions for customers.

Healthcare: In healthcare, where sensitive patient data is stored electronically, ethical hackers protect systems from breaches to maintain patient confidentiality.

E-commerce: By securing online shopping platforms, ethical hackers protect payment information, ensuring that customer data isn’t compromised.

Government: Ethical hacking is crucial for government agencies, as they store critical information that, if leaked, could affect national security.

These examples illustrate the essential role ethical hackers play in our everyday lives, helping prevent disruptions and data theft.

Benefits of Ethical Hacking

The advantages of ethical hacking go beyond simple security. Here’s how ethical hacking benefits businesses, individuals, and society as a whole:

Enhanced Security: Ethical hacking identifies weaknesses in systems, allowing businesses to strengthen security measures before they can be exploited.

Cost Savings: The cost of recovering from a cyberattack can be significant. Ethical hacking helps prevent these expenses by safeguarding systems in advance.

Regulatory Compliance: Industries like finance and healthcare require strict adherence to data protection regulations. Ethical hacking helps organizations maintain compliance, avoiding fines and penalties.

Peace of Mind: Knowing that a system has been tested by ethical hackers reassures stakeholders and users, building trust in an organization.

Skill Development: Ethical hacking provides computer science students with skills in problem-solving, critical thinking, and cybersecurity, which are highly valued in the tech industry.

Ethical Hacking in Computer Science Education

With cyber threats on the rise, educational institutions play a pivotal role in preparing students to enter the cybersecurity field. At St. Mary’s Group of Institutions, Hyderabad, we offer computer science programs that cover ethical hacking and cybersecurity, enabling students to understand and apply these skills.

Our curriculum includes hands-on exercises in:

Network Security: Students learn to protect systems and networks from attacks.

Software Vulnerability Testing: Through projects and labs, students analyze software for potential security issues.

Ethical Hacking and Penetration Testing: By simulating real-world hacking scenarios, students gain practical experience in securing digital systems.

This emphasis on ethical hacking ensures that our students are prepared for future careers as cybersecurity professionals, ready to defend against the latest cyber threats.

Key Skills Needed for Ethical Hacking

To excel in ethical hacking, students and professionals need several skills, including:

Problem-Solving Abilities: Ethical hackers must think creatively to find vulnerabilities.

Programming Knowledge: Knowing languages like Python, C, and Java is essential for understanding and exploiting code vulnerabilities.

Networking Basics: A strong grasp of networking principles is crucial for identifying network security risks.

Analytical Thinking: Ethical hackers must analyze complex systems and think critically about potential weaknesses.

By developing these skills, students at St. Mary’s Group gain a competitive edge, making them capable of addressing cybersecurity challenges in the modern world.

Conclusion

As more industries go digital, ethical hacking is becoming a sought-after skill. Ethical hackers are not just valuable to companies—they are essential. They safeguard data, maintain customer trust, and protect critical infrastructure.

At St Mary's Group of Institutions, Best Engineering College in Hyderabad, we equip students with the skills and knowledge to succeed in this exciting field. Ethical hacking is more than just a job; it’s a vital aspect of modern computer science that contributes to a safer, more secure digital world.

Building a Disciplined Business Culture

It takes more than just brilliant ideas to succeed in the fast-paced corporate world of today. It all comes down to focusing, working hard, and following through on your goal. The thing that keeps everything together is discipline. It's what makes winners different from losers. Discipline is necessary for even the best ideas to fail.

1. Staying Focused and Productive

Maintaining discipline benefits both you and your team. It helps you stay focused on the important tasks rather than letting little setbacks or small successes divert you. Being disciplined allows you to focus your time on the things that will increase productivity. This aids in your goal-achieving and keeps you in line with the mission of your business.

2. Consistency is Key

One big win isn't enough to make a firm successful. It's about providing excellent goods and services on a regular basis. Maintaining high standards and keeping everything in order are made easier with discipline. Consistency fosters trust in a variety of contexts, including customer service, financial management, and marketing strategy implementation. Customer loyalty is higher for organizations that have a track record of dependability.

3. Money Matters

An important aspect of owning a business is handling finances. You must exercise caution when making purchases and investments. Maintaining discipline enables you to make prudent financial decisions, monitor your cash flow, and adhere to a budget. You risk losing money or getting into debt without this. Financially savvy business owners are more likely to create robust, long-lasting companies that can withstand any adversity.

4. Building Resilience

Companies encounter a wide range of difficulties, from weak economies to unforeseen issues. Maintaining your strength and perseverance requires discipline. A disciplined attitude lets you view setbacks as minor detours rather than catastrophic failures when times are rough. Disciplined leaders are able to remain composed, think clearly, and make wise choices that will help their business weather difficult times.

5. Leading by Example

A leader who upholds discipline sets an example for the team. Workers turn to their leaders for direction, and a well-behaved boss demonstrates commitment and expertise. As a result, a productive workplace is created where employees are inspired to give their all. Accountability is another benefit of a disciplined workplace, as it guarantees that everyone is contributing. Better performance and business expansion result from this.

6. Time is Precious

Having solid time management skills is a sign of discipline. With so much on their plates, entrepreneurs can easily become overwhelmed. You can maximize your time, though, if you prioritize your work, establish deadlines, and follow through on your plan. Since time is a finite resource, savvy companies understand how crucial it is to manage it.

7. Focus on the Big Picture

You need discipline to stay focused on your long-term objectives. While quick successes are fantastic, gradually developing a strong business is the true secret to success. Even in difficult times, disciplined business entrepreneurs never waver from their commitment to their mission. Ultimately, these endurance and patience pay off, resulting in significant, long-term achievements.

Conclusion:

Establishing discipline is the cornerstone of prosperous enterprises. It guarantees reliability, strengthens resilience, and encourages efficient money management. Discipline is essential to all facets of business operations, from keeping focus and setting priorities to creating a happy work environment and adhering to long-term objectives. Entrepreneurs can realize their full potential and build successful businesses that can overcome any obstacle by embracing discipline.Ready to transform your business with expert guidance?

The Impact of Professional Business Services on Long-Term Growth

In today’s competitive business environment, achieving sustained long-term growth requires more than just a strong product or service offering. It involves strategic planning, efficient operations, compliance with regulations, and sound financial management. Professional business services play a critical role in supporting businesses in these areas, helping them navigate complex challenges and capitalize on opportunities. This blog will explore the impact of professional business services on long-term growth, focusing on key services like audit, tax consultancy, corporate tax registration, and chartered accountant services in the UAE.

The Role of Audit Services in Sustaining Business Growth

Audit services in UAE are essential for maintaining the financial health and integrity of a business. Regular audits provide a comprehensive review of a company’s financial statements, ensuring accuracy, transparency, and compliance with relevant accounting standards and regulations. For businesses aiming for long-term growth, audits are not just about meeting legal requirements; they also offer valuable insights into financial performance, risk management, and operational efficiency.

By identifying weaknesses in financial processes and internal controls, audit firms in UAE help businesses implement necessary improvements, reducing the risk of fraud, errors, and financial mismanagement. These improvements contribute to a stronger financial foundation, enabling businesses to make informed decisions, attract investors, and pursue growth opportunities with confidence. In essence, regular audits act as a safeguard, ensuring that a company’s growth is built on a solid and reliable financial framework.

Importance of Corporate Tax Registration for Business Growth

Corporate tax registration UAE has become increasingly significant as businesses adapt to new tax regulations and obligations. With the introduction of corporate tax, companies operating in the UAE must ensure compliance to avoid penalties and legal issues. Corporate tax registration is not just a regulatory requirement; it also plays a vital role in financial planning and long-term business strategy.

Proper corporate tax registration allows businesses to understand their tax liabilities, plan their finances more effectively, and take advantage of tax incentives and exemptions where applicable. This proactive approach to tax management helps businesses optimize their tax position, freeing up resources that can be reinvested into growth initiatives. Whether it’s expanding into new markets, launching new products, or investing in innovation, the savings and financial clarity gained from efficient tax registration can have a significant impact on a company’s ability to grow sustainably.

The Strategic Advantage of Tax Consultancy Services

Navigating the complex landscape of tax regulations requires expertise and strategic foresight. Tax consultancy UAE provides businesses with the knowledge and guidance needed to manage their tax obligations effectively while minimizing liabilities. For businesses focused on long-term growth, working with a tax consultant can be a game-changer.

Tax consultants help businesses stay compliant with evolving tax laws, which is particularly important in a jurisdiction like the UAE, where the tax environment is continuously developing. Beyond compliance, tax consultants offer strategies to optimize tax planning, such as advising on the best corporate structures, managing cross-border tax issues, and identifying tax-saving opportunities. By leveraging tax consultancy services, businesses can reduce their tax burden, improve cash flow, and allocate more resources toward growth initiatives. The strategic advantage provided by expert tax planning can be a key driver of long-term success in a competitive market.

The Impact of Chartered Accountant Services on Business Expansion

Chartered accountant services are invaluable for businesses looking to achieve sustainable growth and expansion. Chartered accountants offer a broad range of services, including financial reporting, budgeting, cash flow management, and strategic planning. Their expertise ensures that businesses maintain strong financial health, which is essential for scaling operations and entering new markets.

In the UAE, where economic conditions and regulations can be complex, chartered accountants help businesses navigate these challenges with confidence. They provide detailed financial analysis and insights that support decision-making, helping businesses allocate resources efficiently and identify profitable growth opportunities. Whether a company is looking to expand locally or internationally, chartered accountant services provide the financial clarity and strategic advice needed to succeed. Their role in ensuring compliance, managing risks, and optimizing financial performance cannot be overstated, as these factors are critical to long-term business growth.

Integrating Professional Services for Holistic Growth

While each of these professional services—audits, tax consultancy, corporate tax registration, and chartered accountant services—offers specific benefits, their true power lies in integration. Businesses that leverage these services in a coordinated manner can achieve a more holistic approach to growth. For example, insights gained from an audit can inform tax planning strategies, while efficient corporate tax registration can be supported by the financial management expertise of a chartered accountant.

In the UAE’s dynamic business environment, the ability to integrate these professional services can provide a competitive edge. Businesses that adopt a proactive approach to financial management, compliance, and strategic planning are better positioned to capitalize on growth opportunities and navigate challenges. This integrated approach not only supports immediate business needs but also lays the groundwork for sustainable long-term success.

Professional business services play a crucial role in driving long-term growth and expansion. In the UAE, where businesses must navigate a unique and evolving regulatory landscape, services like audit, tax consultancy, corporate tax registration, and chartered accountant services are indispensable. By leveraging these services, businesses can ensure financial integrity, optimize tax strategies, and make informed decisions that support sustainable growth. The integration of these services provides a comprehensive approach to business management, enabling companies to achieve their growth objectives and thrive in a competitive market.
