Mergers/Acquisitions
We identify the options available to sellers and buyers in the light
of their or their target’s current financial circumstances,
industry
position, geographic influences and
internal operations. We conduct controlled auctions for the sale or
acquisition of all or a part of
a business, its assets or its equity.
We value the business or the target using standard approaches
(cost, market and income) that are fine tuned with our years
of business and investment banking
experience.
We search for buyers or targets through publicly available data
and through our network of business and financial contacts in
the USA, Western Europe and in Central and

negotiation and document review, and in the process of closing and
transfer of control.
