Acrest Business Consulting Pte Ltd, trading as A CREST Business Consulting, is a Singapore accounting and business advisory firm established in 2012. The firm is a team of Qualified Accountants with more than 20 years of combined professional and commercial experience spanning small Public Accounting firms through to the Big 4, and clients ranging from local SMEs to public listed corporations.
Despite that breadth of experience, Acrest's stated focus is on sole proprietors and SME owners — businesses that, in the firm's words, deserve to spend more of their attention on running the business while leaving financial and legal compliance to a trusted partner.
The firm is recognised as a Tax Agent with the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) and a Registered Filing Agent with the Accounting & Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA), holding ACRA Registered Filing Agent No. FA20170610 and Singapore company registration no. 201719836N.
Acrest's current services span accounting, taxation, company secretarial work, business advisory, and business applications, and the firm can be reached directly by phone or email from its office in Sembawang.
Since 2012, Acrest Business Consulting Pte Ltd — trading as A CREST Business Consulting — has been providing accounting, tax and business advisory services from its office in Sembawang, Singapore, with a particular focus on sole proprietors and SME owners.
What sets Acrest apart is the breadth of experience behind its team of Qualified Accountants, who bring more than 20 years of combined professional and commercial experience. That experience spans both ends of the industry — from small Public Accounting firms to the Big 4, and from local SMEs to public listed corporations. The firm says this diversity gives it a genuine understanding of the different requirements and concerns that come with running businesses of very different sizes, even though its day-to-day focus remains on smaller business owners.
Acrest is explicit about who it serves best: sole proprietors and SME owners who, in the firm's words, deserve to spend more of their time and attention on running their business, while leaving the financial and legal compliance side to a trusted partner. It's a positioning built around freeing up business owners from the administrative burden of accounting and regulatory filings, rather than trying to be all things to all clients.
Acrest holds two credentials that matter for any business relying on it for compliance work: it is recognised as a Tax Agent by the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS), and as a Registered Filing Agent by the Accounting & Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA), under Filing Agent No. FA20170610. The firm itself is registered in Singapore under company registration number 201719836N.
Acrest's current service lineup covers five areas: accounting, taxation, company secretarial services, business advisory, and business applications. Together, these cover the core compliance obligations a Singapore company needs to meet — from day-to-day bookkeeping and tax filing to the corporate secretarial requirements set out under the Companies Act — alongside broader advisory support for business owners navigating growth or operational decisions.
