Strategic Advisory Services

All our strategy solutions include innovative approaches for a sustainable future.

Strategy Design and Evaluation

We help clients identify and measure the effectiveness of different strategic initiatives designed to meet their business objectives and fulfill their mission. Cutting-edge market research, analysis, and evaluation tools drawing upon the work of leading research institutes and thinkers is continuously embedded in our work.

Strategic Capital Planning

Our capital planning services come from a global network of established partners in the venture capital, equity investment, and corporate finance sectors. We couple our capital raising capabilities with financial advisory services and online bond auctions to provide a full complement of capital raising products. Our success lies in our knowledge of the financing markets and investor universe, our expertise in structuring transactions, and our long-standing relationships with providers of capital.

We help our clients to –

· Raise capital at all stages of the company’s growth, at all levels of capital structure, and regardless of whether a company is for-profit or tax exempt.

· Raise all forms of debt and equity capital including growth equity capital, mezzanine and subordinated debt, and tax exempt debt.

· Raise capital to facilitate acquisitions, for fund growth, to recapitalize, or to undertake a buyout.

Mergers & Acquisitions

We assist our clients in devising the optimal approach to realizing their strategic objectives - whether to grow through acquisition, maximize shareholder value, or restructure. As an integral part of our M&A capabilities, we also offer valuation services, provide fairness opinions, and advise on restructurings and recapitalizations. We offer sell- and buy-side services.

Merging with a partner or competitor can be a viable means to grow, finance growth, create an exit strategy, or eliminate a competitor. Mergers can be accomplished using different forms depending on a company's objectives. We help evaluate the alternatives in light of our client's objectives ‑ structuring and negotiating a merger that meets the company's needs.

Companies looking for acquisition candidates regularly retain us to conduct searches for strategic targets. In such assignments, we perform a number of services including: establishing acquisition criteria, identifying targets, initiating contact, presenting offers, performing due diligence, negotiating the terms of transactions, raising financing, and assisting in closing of transactions.

Outsourcing and supply chain optimization

We support our clients in identifying suitable outsourcing and supply chain solutions ‑ negotiating the process and implementing relevant measures quickly and effectively. Especially in the FMCG and general commodities markets we are able to source suppliers on a global basis and ensure effective due diligence from people, process, organization, and technology perspectives.
