Corporate & Business Transaction services
If you are like most people, you want to avoid wasting time, resources, and effort on bad deal prospects and rapidly agree transaction terms on good deals.

Our Deal Experience
Conduit Consulting’s® deal and management expertise accelerates our clients' deal process and expedites transfer. Our buy-side approach bolsters clients’ ability to secure favorable rates on raw materials, components and services in addition to acquire targets with no or little competition. Similarly, our sell-side approach not only aids engaging desirable buyers capable of completing transaction, but also fosters deal-making without word leaking out when representing clients contemplating sale of assets or entire enterprise that wish to stealthfully explore alternatives. These and other aspects of our strategic deal-making approach mitigate many transaction risks.
When leading or managing corporate transactions our role includes collaborating and coordinating with Investment Bankers, Attorneys, Auditors, Tax Accountants and other experts on clients behalf; but also managing the transition and business transformation.
Additionally, Conduit Consulting® is often called upon to perform due diligence then renegotiate terms to stop the hemorrhaging from previously agreed ill-conceived and/or poorly structured transactions, recoup investment, and, if possible, turnaround the situation to make it profitable.
