The pace of divestitures has accelerated in recent years as many companies seek to consolidate their assets, accelerate growth opportunities or reduce their costs on distressed assets.

Success rates for divestitures vary considerably depending on various factors such as the size of the divested business, the industry, and the complexity of the transaction.

We have a wealth of experience and a wide skill base, ensuring these complex business actions do not result in a negative outcome.
