Colonnade Overview

Company Details

What we do
Colonnade provides expert, objective advice on mergers and acquisitions, private placements, fairness opinions, valuation opinions and corporate finance issues for privately-held businesses, publicly-traded companies and financial sponsors.

We bring creativity, experience and a long-term perspective to each of our assignments. We seek first to understand our client’s objectives. After a thorough and collaborative review of all strategic alternatives, we structure a transaction to best address the objectives. We manage a disciplined process to maximize results.

Our clients’ interests come first. We’ll advise against a transaction if it doesn’t meet your objectives, even if it means we’ll forgo a fee. Nothing builds relationships of trust like telling the truth.

What we offer
Focus. Focusing on financial services and business services means we know the business models, valuation metrics, accounting issues and players in our sectors. We know both the strategic buyers and financial sponsors most active in our sectors. Transactions are more efficient and our clients benefit when our experienced M&A team conducts due diligence, drafts the offering materials, interacts with the other side of the table and closes the deal.

Expertise. We have built our network of relationships and execution experience the hard way – deal by deal through years at Wall Street firms and other leading financial services firms. We are experts at structuring and executing complex financial transactions for both public and private companies. Our transaction experience spans the capital structure. Our bankers have completed over 40 M&A transactions exceeding $15.billion in equity value, more than a dozen public equity offerings aggregating in excess of $3.billion and dozens of bond issues and loan syndications.

Results. One of our senior partners will closely manage your transaction from start to finish. Our senior bankers like deal execution, which means thoughtful attention, accountability and no surprises.

Your transaction is as important to us as it is to you. Your transaction shouldn’t be a training exercise. Put our experience to work.
