Private Equity Investors

We contribute senior M&A transaction management expertise to the team of your portfolio company when you and your company management needs it. We are your portfolio companies' M&A department, keeping your management team focussed on growing and operationally optimizing the business.

Our Clients: Portfolio Company CEOs, CFOs and Private Equity Investment Professionals

We work very differently than typical transaction advisors: We will temporarily be part of your portfolio company team. When appropriate we will work on their premises and present ourselves as the M&A staff of your portfolio company to outside counterparts.

We provide comprehensive M&A project execution with the scope and professionalism of an M&A department of a large company:

• Streamlining of portfolio company assets
• Execution of buy-and-build strategies
• Exit Management

Execution of "Smaller" Transactions

We will evaluate and execute many of the transactions in-house, eliminating the need to engage investment and boutique banks. We will help your portfolio company management and your investment professionals reach decisions efficiently and will project manage each case from beginning to end. In the event you decide to proceed with a transaction, we provide analysis, due diligence and working party coordination, structuring and negotiation support.

Execution of "Larger" Transactions

When you decide to engage in transforming transactions, or are preparing for the sale, or IPO of the business, we provide the interface between the private equity investors, the portfolio company management, the transaction partners, bankers and all other counterparts and constituents. As seasoned former corporate M&A professionals we know the processes, information needs and decision processes keeping your portfolio company management focussed. We also provide your investment bankers with a professional and dedicated M&A counterpart within your portfolio company.

By being company insiders we are in a credible position to provide unbiased second opinions.
