Our Modelling team supports clients with financial modelling across the whole umbrella of Advisory services, with four main focus areas:
Transactions and fundraising – sell-side or buy-side modelling to tell the story of a business, quantify risks, opportunities, and returns, and support fundraising
Restructuring and insolvency – turnaround planning to rebuild lender confidence, short-term cash flow forecasting, and insolvency outcome analysis
Funds and valuations – asset and fund models to support initial transactions and ongoing valuation and reporting requirements, with a particular focus on the infrastructure sector
Financial models underpin almost all business decisions and all corporate transactions. We build, review and amend models across all sectors, and our tools and analysis help our clients understand the impact of their decisions before they make them. Our priority is delivering tools that are easy to understand, as well as flexible and robust in the face of change. Most of our work is executed in Microsoft Excel, with some use of other programming languages.
