We have a Global Footprint
With offices on both sides of the Atlantic and an ever expanding
sphere of influence, CFA's footprint broadens our client's
market opportunity. CFA has spent the past 50 years establishing
its name and reputation across the globe to position itself to
offer the best representation for companies seeking to maximize
their M&A objectives. CFA's team can help you achieve the
success you desire.
We are Independent
You've worked hard to build your company and want to obtain the
best price possible for its sale or maybe you are still building
your company and want the most attractive capital available. We
believe you should have the ability to obtain the best pricing
and terms possible. Some investment banking firms conduct investment and/or lending activities directly or through
affiliates: CFA does not. CFA is unbiased in its advice to its
clients.
We are not tied to any particular financial institution or
investment arm, so we are able to evaluate and advise between all options with a sole allegiance to your company. We will
strive to provide you with the optimal solution to your
financial goal.
We are Respected in the Buyer
Community
With the increasing prevalence of auctions in the marketplace,
buyers value CFA's demonstrated ability to work on their behalf
to identify acquisition targets that have not entered the
market. Our buy-side representation enables us to frequently
identify and close transactions under
terms that can significantly augment a buyer's investment rate
of return. Whether you are a first time business buyer, or a
seasoned acquirer, you owe it to yourself to see how CFA can be
your best answer to the complexities of business acquisition
transactions.
We have Extensive Industry
Experience
CFA principals bring with them a wealth of financial experience
from decades in senior roles at blue chip companies as well as
leading professional and technology firms. By the time
associates join CFA, they have enjoyed considerable personal success in the business
world.
Sellers are assured that they are maximizing their potential
because they are helped every step of the way by our senior
advisors. We help sellers plan their exit strategy, position
their company for sale, value their company, prepare compelling
marketing documents, canvas the widest array of qualified
buyers, filter prospective buyers down to those best
suited, recommend strategies to achieve the best offer,
navigate through the hurdles of due diligence to close their
deal while insulating them from the perils of personal
confrontation with hard nose buyers.
CFA partners have the experience to offer your company the level
of service and knowledge only real world accomplishments can
bring.
Principals are Active in all
Phases of the Assignment
A competent investment banker needs experience in valuation,
accounting, salesmanship, and patience. In short, a good
investment banker has been around the business block before
entering the profession. CFA has aggressively built its
investment banking business for the past 50 years by attracting
only accomplished business professionals with outstanding track records.
It takes time and experience to be able to understand the
nuances of business, and senior deal makers in CFA have exactly
that. With CFA, the client works with CFA leadership, not staff,
which ensures that they do not have a succession of people who
handle their account. That means you get the best representation
and the most experienced principals throughout your entire
process.
We have a Distinguished Track
Record for Success
CFA's track record shows we are committed to our job. We have
been helping companies buy, sell, and obtain financing for their
businesses for 50
years, and have thousands of satisfied clients. We are committed
to offering our clients the highest possible levels of service.
The organization was built on guiding middle-market companies
through a vast array of transaction hurdles and opportunities.
Our talented pool of experienced investment bankers, all of whom
are dedicated to your company's success, promote innovative
solutions, identify new opportunities, and devise specific plans
to get you where you want to be. |
