We help our clients with the following services:

Business modelling is more than just preparing financial forecasts. It is about articulating and evaluating business plans, strategies and options to assist you in the decision-making process. Our Business Modelling team has provided specialized services and support to clients across the world. Working together, we can help you develop business models to evaluate potential returns and implications across a range of business and market scenarios.
- Bankruptcy Supporting Services:
In some instances, the best way to maximize asset value is to initiate a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding. In addition to our restructuring and turnaround services, we provide critical services specific to a court-supervised insolvency process. The bankruptcy and insolvency services team collaborates with the client’s management team, board of directors, and legal and financial advisers to develop and implement a comprehensive reorganization plan.

We also have the capability to provide additional resources as needed.
- Transaction advisory services:
The transaction advisory experts are senior partners and dedicated teams with specific industry expertise offer a forward-looking perspective and track record of success across the entire transaction life cycle.

Our unique capabilities provide us a competitive edge to understand and to convey to potential buyers, sellers and financing sources a company’s key business drivers.
- Private Equity:
The private equity industry currently enjoys an unprecedented opportunity to leverage rapid globalization and a period of strong corporate liquidity. At the same time, the past several years of economic and business volatility have resulted in an increasingly complex business landscape, including new legal and regulatory challenges. As a result, private equity firms are experiencing longer hold times for portfolio companies and an altered market for acquisition and divestitures. In addition, the limited partner community desires additional transparency and comfort around the private equity firms in which they invest.
- Valuation and Financial Advisory Services:
We specialize in providing business and intangible asset valuations, financial opinions, financial and strategic analysis, forecasting and transaction support services covering a broad spectrum of industries and situations from early stage, middle market and Fortune 500 companies and capital market constituents.
- Restructuring/Turnaround Services:
The restructuring and turnaround experts we have help management stabilize finances and operations to reassure all parties-in-interest that proactive steps are being taken to enhance value. Our deep expertise across many industries allows us to quickly ascertain the key issues and to react immediately on behalf of our clients. For clients in crisis, the team develops liquidity forecasts, improves cash flow management, obtains additional financing, negotiates loan covenant waivers and guides complex debt restructuring. We also provide analytical and advisory services to lenders and unsecured creditors of distressed borrowers.
