Advisory services

Growth and change are two realities that no business can afford to ignore. Sustainable strategies that help your business innovate and grow while reducing costs and leveraging talent are just as essential as having the agility and creativity to respond to rapidly changing environments.

Our clients

PwC provides a wide range of services to private and public companies, institutions and NGOs.

Our services

Achieving your objectives to gain advantage requires experience and foresight. We can help you make the best decisions to move your business forward with confidence.

Due diligence 

Be it public or private market transactions, businesses need to be satisfied with the fairness of the transactions value. All businesses involved in an acquisition, as buyers or sellers, need to ensure that the financial information they hold is as accurate as possible, not only to prevent paying too much (or in a seller’s case receiving too little) but also to ensure that their governance and risk management objectives are met. Together with information and advice provided, the data allows the directors to approve the proposed transaction confident in the knowledge that they were meeting their commercial and legal obligations.

The purpose of due diligence is to verify and analyze information that is important to specific stakeholders in decision making. It is important that the due diligence is carried out by an impartial, expert party and that its conclusion is presented in a clear manner to the party for whom it is intended.

 

Valuation 

PwC delivers a wide range of valuation services

We offer valuation of all or parts of a company, options, purchase price allocations, impairment tests and financial analyses.

PwC Deals is a highly experienced team, equipped with good tools in the form of information databases and models, as well as an international network with significant expertise and a common methodology.

 

Purchase and sale of businesses 

We assist companies and their owners through all financial, strategic and procedural aspects related to the purchase and sale of businesses, mergers, debt financing, management buy-outs, capital raising, etc.

In close cooperation with PwC's other specialists in due diligence, tax and consulting, we can assist you from start to finish in demanding processes.

Sale of business

PwC provides a variety of solutions when it comes to the sale of companies or business units. We work closely with the seller to develop a sales plan, find the right buyer and get the best price. We understand that each seller has their own ideas and goals for the sale and provide assistance and advice in achieving that goal.

Purchase of business

PwC provides assistance and advice in the acquisition of companies, including assessment of exchange rates, assistance in negotiations and assessing the impact of proposed acquisitions. PwC also assists management in agreements and relations with banks or other financiers.

 

Forecasting

A clear strategy and forecasting that is in line with the company's vision and operations is necessary for a company to achieve its goals. It is important that the board and executive board of a company closely monitor how the policy is implemented. Strategy and planning need to be presented and re-evaluated regularly with regard to the projects, goals and values of the company.

PwC places great emphasis on well-executed strategic planning, forecasting and strong management control resulting in more efficient, transparent and profitable operations.

Financial modeling 

Financial models are usually designed to increase trust and support in the case of large business decisions. Good financial models provide insight into information that allows you to examine the financial impact of strategic decisions and support business or investment decisions.

PwC can increase the value of the project by maximizing the impact of the financial model in decision-making. Our financial models are also reviewed by experts with respect to accounting policies and taxes.

 

Business Recovery Services

Organisations, directors, employees, shareholders, lenders and creditors can all be negatively impacted when a business finds itself in difficult times, underperforms financially or experiences a crisis. In our experience, early intervention can considerably increase the chances of a positive outcome for all concerned. Delivering the right restructuring solutions can help build a platform for recovery.

We provide discreet and confidential advisory services to companies, stakeholders and individuals in troubled financial situations.

For management, lenders, shareholders or other stakeholders in businesses facing financial underperformance or crisis, we deliver restructuring solutions which can help build a platform for recovery. Alternatively, we can help financial stakeholders to recover value in insolvency.
