Addressing activist concerns requires focus on three key complementary areas: preparedness, engagement and execution.

Private equity firms, corporations and financial institutions spend enormous amounts of time and resources determining the right M&A strategy. Creating the highest return for shareholders can involve either acquisition or divestment of divisions or a whole company. Having participated on both sides of the table in multiple industries and geographic markets, our senior experts advise on the optimal M&A strategy in each situation. We work with companies and their boards or private equity sponsors around the world to understand commercial market trends, assess the competitive landscape, evaluate strategic fit of alternative transactions, quantify revenue and cost synergy potential, estimate potential transaction prices before approaching targets or buyers, and identify the right transaction strategy to support shareholder value creation.
