Acquisitions. Capital formation. Ownership transition.
Advisory and origination in the private capital markets. The Firm is retained by investment firms, family offices and private lenders, and by companies and their owners. Coverage runs across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
Ascentivelab Group is a private capital markets firm, retained on both sides of the transaction, across acquisitions, capital formation, and ownership transition.
It advises a limited number of investment firms, lenders, and private investors on one side, and companies and their owners on the other. Because both sides are clients, the Firm’s counsel is accountable to the relationship, not to any single transaction.
The Firm is retained by family offices, investment firms and private lenders, and by the companies it presents to them, on criteria the capital has already set.
Under coverage, each classified by the mandate it holds.
