Buy-Side Advisory

Buying a business or asset is the fastest way to grow — and the fastest way to overpay. Buy-side advisory keeps the evidence on your side of the table.

Overview

We represent acquirers through the full cycle: defining criteria, sourcing and approaching targets, valuing on evidence, structuring offers, coordinating due diligence and negotiating to completion.

Our valuation and tax teams sit inside the deal team — so price, structure and post-deal integration are tested together, not sequentially.

Why it matters

Every deal grounded in verified market data — pay too much or sell too low and the market keeps the difference. Engagements are scoped by a senior adviser, priced as a fixed fee before work begins, and delivered by the same team that answers when you call.

FAQ

Common Questions

Do you work on off-market deals?

Yes — many UAE acquisitions never reach a process. Direct, discreet approaches to identified targets are a core part of the service.

How are you paid?

Fixed and milestone-based advisory fees agreed up front — we deliberately avoid pure success-fee structures that pressure advisers toward any deal over the right deal.

How are your fees structured for buy-side advisory?

Every engagement is a fixed fee agreed in writing before work begins — scoped by a senior adviser after a short, free review of your situation. No hourly billing, no surprises, and the quote itself is free.

Whose side of the transaction are you on?

Yours only. We take no brokerage spread and represent one party per transaction — so the advice, the model and the negotiation all pull in your direction.

How do you keep a transaction confidential?

NDAs before any information moves, anonymised teasers, staged data-room access and a controlled buyer and lender list — confidentiality is engineered into the process, not assumed.

Are your financial packs bank-ready?

Yes. Models, information memoranda and lender packs are built to the standard UAE banks and institutional investors expect — and reviewed by a senior adviser before anything leaves the building.
