Strategic Advisory
We deliver thoughtful, tailored solutions to our clients, consistent with our reputation for trusted, independent strategic and financial advice
We help our clients identify and pursue strategic priorities, devise strategies to enhance shareholder value, and develop new ideas and deeper perspective to achieve their goals.
MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS
We evaluate potential merger partners as well as financial and strategic alternatives. We advise on strategy, timing, financing, pricing, and we assist in negotiating and closing transactions. In addition, we act as a dealer-manager in tender or exchange offers.
CROSS-BORDER
As many as 50% or more of the transactions we advise upon each year may be cross-border—and sometimes involve multiple jurisdictions. Our global offices are staffed with locally established experts in navigating local political, regulatory, and tax issues.
We advise boards and management teams on how to successfully develop relationships with and communicate their strategies and M&A transactions to their shareholders.
SPECIAL COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS
Our team of senior bankers represent independent directors and special committees with unconflicted, objective advice, insight into shareholder concerns, clear and authoritative analysis, and an unrivalled track record in sensitive boardroom situations.
TRANSACTION STRUCTURING
We provide integrated advice in connection with the structuring of public and private transactions – including mergers, spin-offs, sales, joint ventures, and capital markets offerings – intended to optimize tax, accounting, and other objectives of the deal.
