The work

The work

From a name
to a long-term relationship.

01 · UNDERSTAND

Understand what success means

Work directly with management to understand the business, the opportunity, financial expectations and what should carry forward. Agree on the objectives before approaching potential partners.

02 · SELECT

Identify the right teams

Use our experience and longstanding relationships to identify partners with relevant capabilities, capital and strategic interest. Explain the rationale for each proposed introduction and agree on what can be shared.

03 · DEVELOP

Develop the conversation

Make focused introductions, help both sides understand the opportunity and stay involved as the relationship develops. Bring important questions forward early while keeping management’s daily responsibilities in view.

04 · REASSESS

Reassess together

Review whether the relationship, proposed terms and direction continue to meet the objectives. The next step may be deeper discussions, another partner, a broader approach or more time.

If a broader market process would better serve your objectives, we can help you evaluate and select the investment banking team best suited to lead it.

Does Clear Alpine charge sellers?

We do not charge sellers for targeted buyer introductions. Clear Alpine is compensated by participating buyers, and we explain the arrangement before making an introduction.

Separate engagements, including M&A searches undertaken for acquiring businesses, are agreed individually. Any fees charged by an investment bank or other adviser are separate.
