Motiwala cultivates an untapped digital gold market in Southeast Asia

Published

on

Ever since the outbreak of Covid-19, investors worldwide have turned to transfer part of their assets into gold investment to avoid market uncertainties and take advantage of gold’s reliable store of value. Investors have always cited gold as a safe haven when market uncertainties intensify, and the events in 2020 further confirmed the established correlation between gold and market risk levels.

Since January 2020, the gold price has zipped up 25% by the end of the year, even hitting a record high of over $2,000 per ounce at one point for the first time in history.

Along with the growth of demand for gold-related investments, supply grows too. A Dubai-based precious metal supplier known as Motiwala caught sight of the growth in demand and is determined to make use of this opportunity to become a world leader in the precious metal industry.

How Motiwala accumulated sand grain into mountain

Motiwala Jewellers LLC is a certified precious metal refinery, gold processor, bullion manufacturer, and precious metal supplier based in Dubai. Renowned for its complete and diversified rare metal business network, Motiwala Jewellers is one of the top 5 gold merchants globally and one of the largest refineries in the Middle East region.

But Rome wasn’t built in a day. It takes a lot of passion and hard work to build such a spectacular precious metal empire. Its founder, Iqbal Bhai from Pakistan, founded Motiwala 40 years ago and has been in the gold industry since then. He started as a gold and jewellery wholesaler in his home country and later found success when he filed a patent for the international gold market fair in Dubai after discovering its undeveloped gold market.

Through several decades of development, Motiwala Jewellers established subsidiary companies to further diversify the range of services it provides and as an effort to complete its supply chain. It is now the holding company of Motiwala Gold Trading, Motiwala Gold & Precious Stone Industry, Motiwala Gold & Metal Laboratory, Shaheen Exchange.

Since then, the company’s businesses have expanded to cover gold mining, processing, jewellery design, jewellery retail stores, physical gold trading, gold and metal laboratories, precious stones & diamond retail stores, and currency exchange.

With its refinery and an ISO 17025 certified in-house laboratory, Motiwala can produce gold bullion at the finest quality and allow investors to purchase gold bars ranging from 1 gram to 100 grams in size at a competitive price in its physical stores, thus allowing all investors to start investing in gold regardless of their capital size.

Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven

The gold market in Asia, Southeast Asia in particular, are underdeveloped, but experts are confident that Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven in the near future as Southeast Asia has one of the fastest rates of digital payment adoption and more than 400 million internet users. The strong tech foundations were laid by the appealing regulatory landscape and strong government support that has escalated the growth of innovation and healthy competition in this region.

In response to the year-long pandemic crisis, part of the gold and jewellery retailers in Asia are moving their retail businesses onto the internet to reach online consumers and combat the highly contagious virus simultaneously. With robust governance and regulations, digital gold has been gaining much traction in the Southeast Asia market.

Tapping into Southeast Asia’s growing digital gold landscape

Envisioned to become the world leader for dealers and traders from across the globe and to achieve sustainable quality growth, Motiwala co-founded Moti Investment Capital (MIC) in 2018 to expand its global presence in the capital trading sector. The establishment of MIC will enable investors to achieve low-risk, sustainable returns using Motiwala’s unique set of the gold supply chain.

As the first step to globalize its operation, Motiwala has tapped into Southeast Asian countries, providing a wide array of services to the new countries, including asset management, physical gold trading and more. With Motiwala’s supply chain and diverse line of services, it will allow investors to purchase physical gold even if the investors are located outside of Dubai.

In 2018, member countries in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) had consumed 309 tonnes of gold, making Southeast Asia the third-largest market for gold in the world. With the combination of rapid digital adoption, the cultural importance of gold in the region, and low expansion costs, it makes Southeast Asia an ideal region as the first step in Motiwala’s globalization.

MOTIWALA announces partnership with BIS

Motiwala has recently announced its partnership with BIS to expand its global presence. BIS Holding is the first of its kind asset management firm to provide unique investment opportunities for investors, allowing clients to have the privilege to participate in the markets like a real corporate level liquidity provider.

“We are excited to partner with BIS,” said Iqbal Bhai, Founder of Motiwala group. “Through this strategic partnership, Motiwala and BIS can form a clear win-win relationship to provide more value to your existing customers. It would also bolster the long-term partnership between Motiwala and BIS as both firms continue to seek opportunities to achieve business expansion.”

How to Remove QuickBooks Multicurrency and Simplify Your Accounting

Published

on

Brandon, MB, 4th December 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Multicurrency functionality is a valuable feature for businesses that deal with international clients, suppliers, or operations. It allows companies to manage transactions, invoices, and payments in multiple currencies, providing flexibility and accuracy in global trade. However, there are scenarios where a business may choose or need to remove multicurrency features from their accounting software, whether due to a change in business strategy, compliance issues, or software limitations.

Removing multicurrency support can have significant implications on how financial data is recorded and reported. Typically, once multicurrency is enabled in an accounting system, it becomes deeply integrated with the way transactions are handled. This includes currency conversions, exchange rate tracking, and foreign currency reporting. As a result, disabling or removing multicurrency support is not always straightforward and often requires careful planning.

One of the primary reasons a business might decide to remove multicurrency functionality is if it has ceased international operations or consolidated its activities to a single currency environment. This decision simplifies accounting processes by eliminating the need to track fluctuating exchange rates and reduces the complexity of tax reporting. However, businesses must ensure that all existing foreign currency transactions are properly reconciled before multicurrency is removed. This often involves settling outstanding balances, converting open transactions into the base currency, and finalizing any exchange gains or losses.

Another consideration is the impact on historical financial data. Some accounting software does not allow multicurrency to be turned off once enabled because it affects the integrity of past records. In such cases, the business may need to create a new company file or accounting database without multicurrency features and migrate their current financial data accordingly. This process can be time-consuming and requires attention to detail to avoid data loss or inconsistencies.

It is also important to consult with accounting professionals before making any changes to multicurrency settings. They can help assess the implications for tax compliance, reporting standards, and audit requirements. Furthermore, they can assist with reconciling foreign currency transactions and ensuring that financial statements remain accurate and compliant with regulatory guidelines.

In conclusion, removing multicurrency features from accounting software is a significant step that requires thorough evaluation and preparation. While it can streamline accounting processes for businesses operating exclusively in one currency, the transition must be managed carefully to preserve data accuracy and maintain compliance. Seeking expert advice and planning the removal process diligently will help businesses navigate this change successfully.

Moving from AccountEdge to QuickBooks Made Simple and Stress-Free

Published

on

Brandon, MB, 4th December 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, For many small and medium-sized businesses, accounting software plays a vital role in managing financial operations smoothly and accurately. AccountEdge has long been a trusted desktop-based accounting solution, offering robust features tailored for various industries. However, as cloud computing becomes more prevalent, many businesses are considering transitioning from AccountEdge to QuickBooks, a widely used cloud-based accounting platform that offers greater flexibility and real-time access to financial data.

Making the switch from AccountEdge to QuickBooks can offer numerous benefits, but it also requires thoughtful planning to ensure that financial data is accurately transferred and that business continuity is maintained. One of the primary reasons businesses choose to move to QuickBooks is the ability to access their accounting system from anywhere, thanks to QuickBooks Online’s cloud-based infrastructure. This advantage supports remote work, real-time collaboration with accountants, and seamless integration with a broad ecosystem of business apps.

The transition process involves several key considerations. Firstly, it’s important to recognize that AccountEdge is primarily a desktop application, whereas QuickBooks Online operates entirely in the cloud. Because of this fundamental difference, direct file migration is not straightforward. While AccountEdge data can be exported into CSV or Excel files, these files often require significant cleanup and reformatting before they can be imported into QuickBooks. Businesses should plan for some manual data entry and reconciliation during this phase to ensure accuracy.

Another crucial factor is the structure of your chart of accounts, customer lists, vendor details, and historical transactions. These elements must be carefully mapped from AccountEdge to QuickBooks to maintain the integrity of your financial records. Many businesses find it helpful to engage with accounting professionals or migration specialists to guide this process and avoid common pitfalls.

Moreover, payroll processing and tax settings need special attention. Payroll features in AccountEdge differ from those in QuickBooks, especially since QuickBooks Online includes integrated payroll options compliant with local regulations. You will need to set up payroll anew within QuickBooks, ensuring that employee records, tax rates, and deductions are accurately configured.

Training and familiarization with QuickBooks is another important step. Although both AccountEdge and QuickBooks are designed to be user-friendly, their interfaces and workflows vary. Providing your team with adequate training resources and support will help smooth the transition and minimize disruptions to daily operations.

In conclusion, moving from AccountEdge to QuickBooks is a strategic step toward leveraging cloud technology and gaining greater flexibility in your accounting processes. While the migration requires careful planning, data preparation, and possible assistance from experts, the long-term benefits of real-time access, integrated features, and scalability make it a worthwhile investment for growing businesses.
