Scaling under PE, preparing for IPO, or both at once. We build the policies, processes, reporting and controls that institutional investors, banks and auditors expect — delivered by practitioners who have lived it.
Every PE sponsor wants the same thing from treasury: policy, process, control. Said fast, that sounds like a weekend of work. In reality it's the difference between the next bolt-on going smoothly and it eating a quarter.
Treasury policy, counterparty framework, investment policy, hedging mandate and delegation of authority — written, approved and actually followed. The document the CFO hands to the next fundraise.
Close cycle, payments workflow, approval chains, segregation of duties, evidence trail. The plumbing that stops the next ISAE/SOC audit turning into a three-month blocker.
Multi-bank, multi-entity visibility. Daily cash position, liquidity forecasts and covenant metrics board-ready without someone in the team spending a Thursday pulling spreadsheets.
ISO 20022, SWIFT gpi, SCT Inst, and the bank-specific idiosyncrasies that eat onboarding budgets. We stand up the rails so payments stop being a per-entity integration project.
KYB/KYC files, signer mandates, authorised-user matrices, banking contracts rationalised. The boring work that makes every future audit, acquisition and re-financing 10x easier.
Going public is an operational change as much as a capital event. The controls, forecasts, disclosures and financing stance all need to be at listed-company standard before the bell rings — not after.
IR-ready liquidity, debt and FX packs. Quarterly disclosures that answer the questions analysts will actually ask — not the ones you hope they ask.
SOX readiness, ICFR, whistleblower / AML frameworks, tax transparency, Pillar II data requirements. The control environment a listed company is held to, installed before the bell rings.
Integrated 13-week to 3-year cashflow models. Scenario-tested, sensitivity-tested, signed off by the audit committee. Built alongside the team, not behind a curtain.
Capital structure design, RCF vs term vs bond, covenant headroom modelling, rating-agency dialogue, IPO proceeds deployment. From road-show deck to drawdown.
Cash pooling, in-house bank, supply-chain finance, treasury risk framework — right-sized so the first 10-Q doesn't need a warning.
