Private equity advisory
Clairfield International has an active private equity practice, having closed more than 500 deals with private equity involvement for more than EUR 25 billion in enterprise value.
We assist private equity portfolio companies in executing buy & build and platform strategies. These can be sector roll-ups and/or execution of growth strategies, with Clairfield providing superior access to corporate targets.
By selling assets to private equity buyers, often through corporate mandates in non-core asset disposals and carve-outs, we have excellent access and understanding of private equity buyers.
We regularly assist in sell sides of private equity-held businesses that benefit from our sector know-how and international reach.
Clairfield provides end-to-end M&A and financing advisory services to private equity. We engage and assist with private equity by offering inroads and expertise in local markets and, more importantly, by originating investment opportunities through ad-hoc or structured processes. We also regularly help private equity firms on their exits by deploying our international presence to ensure that the most relevant industrial and international buyers are pulled into the sale process.
