About SY Consulting & Auditing (SYCA)

SY Consulting & Auditing, known as SYCA, is a Bahrain-founded practice in the Diplomatic Area of Manama that combines business set-up consultancy with accounting and assurance work. It was started by a certified public accountant and auditor who previously held a senior role at Bahrain's National Audit Office, and the firm describes a team made up of Bahraini women professionals. The offer is organised in six areas: corporate and licensing, accounting and taxation, auditing and expert reports, governance and legal advisory, intellectual property, and business advisory. On the set-up side it handles company and establishment formation, commercial registration and ownership registers, branch and capital changes, professional and health-related licences and liquidations. Clients are entrepreneurs and established businesses operating in the country, and the website does not present a separate offer for non-resident or foreign investors.
