Private equity advisory

To execute deals quickly, private equity businesses need immediate access to experienced resources, but their lean business models mean that they need to work with professional advisers who have a deep understanding of their aims and strategies.

• Private equity houses are involved in a wide range of transactions, from management buyouts of a division of a public company through to large scale leveraged buyouts of large listed businesses.
• Private equity funds are constantly in search of the right opportunities, and these are increasingly international. Cross-border capability is essential for successful deal-making.
• We work closely with many clients in private equity helping them to make acquisitions and advising them on their investment exits.
