Many corporate groups continue to hold investments in their portfolios that do not meet return requirements, may even show negative results, and do not contribute strategically to the further development of the group.
This is where an M&A advisor is needed who has the necessary imagination to identify which investor groups might be interested in such a group entity so that it can return to growth with new ideas.
We also have experience in examining which interfaces between the group and its subsidiaries require special attention.
