Quantuma adds Ahmad Chit to Middle East senior team

Advisory firm Quantuma has strengthened its Middle East practice with Ahmad Chit.

Appointed a Managing Director, Ahmad Chit is a chartered accountant with more than 15 years of experience in forensic accounting, investigations and compliance. His experience includes involvement in a wide array of complex, high-profile and multi-million-dollar investigations and disputes across the Middle East, Africa, North America and Europe.

At Quantuma, Chit is a member of the Investigations and Asset Recovery practice, focused on helping clients conduct investigations into financial malpractices and resolving business disputes.

Chit joins Quantuma from HKA, where he was a director. Earlier, he served Deloitte and Kroll.

Having been based in the Middle East for the past decade, Chit has led forensic accounting assignments across the MENA region. He has worked with the private sector, local courts, public prosecutors, ministries, local regulators and law enforcement agencies, with several of his cases submitted to international courts including the United Nations, the US Department of Justice, and the Securities and Exchange Commission in the US.

“We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Ahmad, who is joining the Quantuma team at a pivotal juncture. This comes as we press ahead with our ambitious growth agenda across the region,” said Yaser Dajani, Middle East lead and managing director at Quantuma.

“Quantuma is recognised as an independent, international and premier provider of specialised advisory services and is exceptionally positioned to support corporations and government bodies in addressing their most formidable challenges. Ahmad's presence in our senior team will be instrumental in this regard.”

Headquartered in the UK, Quantuma launched in the Middle East in 2021. “The firm has huge ambitions, and I am looking forward to playing my part in developing the firm’s brand, reputation and capabilities in the region,” said Chit.
