Company Sale

We advise shareholders on the sale of their business—from preparation to closing, whether a minority or majority sale.

Our focus is clear: maximise valuation, create competitive tension, and ensure execution certainty.

We manage the entire process: 

•  positioning the company and defining the equity story 
•  preparing investor materials and financial analysis 
•  identifying and approaching strategic and financial buyers 
•  structuring the process to drive competition 
•  managing negotiations through to signing and closing 

We run disciplined, confidential processes designed to attract the right buyers—not just more buyers.

The outcome is not simply a transaction, but the best achievable deal under market conditions. 

Investment Readiness 

Strong businesses do not automatically attract investment—they need to be prepared for it.

We ensure your company is positioned to meet investor expectations before entering the market.

We focus on the factors that drive investor decisions:

• a clear, defensible equity story 
• alignment between strategy, operations, and funding needs 
• building robust financial models and valuation frameworks 
• identifying and addressing due diligence gaps 
• aligning management messaging and materials 
• preparation for investor scrutiny and negotiation 

Well-prepared companies achieve faster processes, stronger investor engagement, and better terms.

Our role is to ensure you enter the market ready to perform—not to react.

We offer a one-day Investment Readiness assessment for 550 Euros.

Outsourced deals

This happens when a bank or advisory firm has a deal for which they do not have the time but they do not want to turn away an important client.  We take over the work and the firm keeps the client relationship.  

For example:

A former employer called, asked for help on a deal for which they had no time. It was a small deal, in a niche sector about which they had no clue.  The fee was not going to be large and the work would have been more than they were willing to do for that size of fee.  But the client was important to them!  They did not want to say no to this large, important corporate relationship. So they outsourced the research work, project planning, preparation of the marketing materials, and finding potential investors to us.   The client was not going to sell below a certain threshold but due to the competitive sell-side process and strong bidders we received a bid 25% higher than their cut-off level and the deal was signed 4 months after engagement.  My former colleagues handled the communication with the client and attended all meetings thus maintaining their relationship.  We put the deal together, found the investor, and helped negotiate the close. 

Management Buy Out or Buy In

A typical Management Buy Out or Buy In is one of the best private equity deals to put together.  There is a willing seller, a willing buyer, and a young & dynamic management team which has experience and a vision for the future.  All the ingredients for a perfect deal which is easily financed by debt and equity.  Sometimes the buyers can even negotiate to pay the seller partially with a vendor note depending on how much the owner wants to sell.  An example of this is when a large corporation makes a global decision to exit certain non-core assets and the local management views the business as still highly viable.  Local financing is also sometimes available to protect jobs.

Deal brokerage / Enhanced deal marketing

We work with other corporate finance boutiques on their existing sell-side mandates where we use our network to help them reach additional potential investors.  Multiple, strong bidders maximize proceeds to the seller.

On a straight brokerage deal we contact potential investors and if interested, introduce them to the main advisors.

With enhanced deal marketing we get involved in drafting or reviewing the marketing documents at an earlier stage and make sure the investment thesis is presented in the best possible light, in the best language.

International partnerships

We leverage a global network built over 30 years in investment banking and private equity to connect clients with strategic international partners.

We identify, approach, and help structure partnerships—whether for market entry, expansion, or joint ventures.

Capital raising

We support equity, mezzanine, and debt fundraising by aligning the investment story with the right investor base.

Investor priorities vary—IRR, money multiples, downside protection—and successful fundraising requires balancing these perspectives.

We position your opportunity to meet those expectations and improve funding terms.

Special situations

We advise on complex or sensitive situations where relationships, performance, or governance have deteriorated.

We provide independent analysis, clarify underlying issues, and support resolution strategies.

Mini mandate

For clients who do not require a full advisory mandate, we offer flexible, targeted support.

Engagements are structured to ensure fees are aligned with value delivered.

Initial review

You have been invited to invest in or acquire a business and need a quick, professional review of the opportunity?  

We will perform a rapid on-site or remote analysis of the market potential and the business case strength using international benchmarks while testing the financial possibilities of the venture.

Sole Advisory

We act as lead advisor across the full transaction lifecycle—from initial strategy to closing. 

We define the timeline, coordinate all stakeholders, and ensure the right legal and financial advisors are engaged at the right time. 

Joint Advisory

On larger transactions we work as an intermediary between the client and the other advisors in order to better represent the interests of the owner.  Here we coordinate work flows with the other advisors, keep the project timeline moving, comment on all transaction documents, review due diligence reports, approach additional potential investors.
