Financial Advisory
Compliance is getting
Independent and €uropean
At FdN we are far from being brokers, we are not. We do independent and compliant financial advisory for Corporations and Mid-Sized Companies in Europe.
Our approach to industrial and vertical strategies, leads us naturally towards the advisory to Multinationals and International Groups of the new vehicles to achieve their business strategic goals, like acquiring new technologies, entering into new markets or developing the distribution or dealer networks without putting the balance sheet at risk.
In this process we have build a solid experience in dealing with SMEs and company Owners' exit, when the right time arrives. We have a special sensibility and admiration for the outcome of a life-time, and we take particular care to put it into value.
The Financial Advisory also sees some other financing needs, like Project-Finance Structures, Restructuring support and Special Situations. If there is "light", feasibility, at Feu-du-Nord our "phare" will show clearly the way.
HOW WE HELP
Our Vertical Approach is guiding us naturally to facilitate and support Corporate Initiatives in Multinational Companies and International Groups to help them achieve Strategic Objectives like entering into a new Market, acquiring a new Technology, or developing their Distribution and/or Dealers Network, etc.
New Special Purpose Vehicles allow to achieve and influence on key Strategies while protecting the core activities and the Company Balance Sheet.
It takes the convergence of MNC knowledge, Industry Know-How, Independent Advisory and Financial compliance to achieve the goals. Higher productivity demands higher sophistication in tools and strategies, and FdN is here to assist on those.

It takes a whole life to build a decent Company. It is yours. It is not only about Money. It is about all weekends, nights, missed school appointments, and hours taken to leisure. But now it is maybe the time to think about passing the baton. Maybe some more growth still. Maybe some more value to take. In any of those cases, at FdN we have the empathy and understanding to help, we know how to express the value of what has been built, and to whom to explain it.
M&A may seem an standard, but it is not. There is only one sale of a company. There is one one buy of another one. There is no space for mistake, for regret. At FdN we always make sure Owners will always sleep well knowing that the transaction was the right one, at the right moment, to the right target. As simple (and complex) as that.

Engineering Firms, Big Operators, Foreign Investors, Public Administrations, etc can now be sure that this Special Public-Private Tender is well structured and governed, that this Project-Financing is having the right risk treatment to get the financing, that the company is talking the language of the banks and multi-lateral financing institutions. The success of the project, its feasibility and after more importantly its profitability and performance is depending on the right structured of its financing and drivers.
At FdN we can assist with a third-party independence, with a governace between technical and financial entities, or simply by teaming-up with the company CEO's and CFO's to be sure that the Project is done on-time and properly.
Structured-Finance is a sophisticated skill, so are we.

There is often an angle, a hidden way, to see the light of an Special Situation. It takes an independent and lateral access to the case, to validate certain assumptions and hidden needs with parties, creditors and lenders. To take out emotions and see good management for a new hope. If it is possible, at FdN we will find the angle.
You also know how risky a bad or grey convenant can be, we will advice you and the lawyers on the business limits, on what it is conceivable and what it is not feasible, finding again the right angle.
If there is hope, our FdN "phare" will show us the way out. You can trust it.
