Origin · How CBTP appeared

The GCC business was looking for and did not find

ACCA, CPA, and CMA are global standards for the global market. They did not answer the question: how do I file VAT201 with EmaraTax? What are ESR and UBO? The GCC business has been unable to find a specialist with the right qualifications for years. CBTP grew out of this real request.
