Richard SkiminHead of M&A and Strategy, News Corp Australia Having been through the process of deal screening many times in my career, it is fascinating to meet a business that is solving one of the most complex challenges. When looking at identifying potential targets, consultants can be slow and theoretical, Finquest are fast and practical, we received high quality, targeted introductions very quickly.
Scott KramerManaging Director Alternative Investments North America, VISTRA I found it very refreshing working with the Finquest team. In a unique and efficient way they provided insights about the market and market participants which might be of interest to us. Not only did they do nearly all of the work to identify and make initial contact with potential acquisitions, they also asked prodding questions of our team to ensure we were getting to the right targets. If you are looking for a different, very cost effective approach to growing your business via acquisition, then Finquest is definitely worth a look.
Marc FrappierManaging Partner & Head, Eurazeo Capital As an active investor looking to accelerate through acquisitions the growth of our portfolio companies, we turned to Finquest to look for build-up opportunities in Asia, North America and Europe. The Finquest team gets the job done in just a few weeks and introduces us to companies that investment banks or advisors would not be able to identify. We have already completed several acquisitions and we are looking forward to an active collaboration in 2021.
Antony WoodsGroup Head of Acquistions, ERM ERM are pleased we made the decision to engage Finquest for a North American acquisition search and we would certainly consider using them again for other regions. We were particularly impressed by the quality, hit rate, and results of the outreach phase. Despite ERM’s search being focused on mid-market companies across North America during the time of COVID, Finquest’s origination team provided warm and highly qualified introductions to many actionable targets, successfully introducing ERM to owners and decision-makers.
Gianbeppi FortisCEO, Solution30 We have been working with Finquest for over a year and have completed several projects across Europe. As a leading European technology service provider, we are continuously looking to strengthen our service delivery capabilities, and M&A forms an important part of this strategy.What stood out with Finquest was their ability to understand our business and our M&A objectives, and to promptly find off-market acquisition targets. From the mapping stage through to the outreach, the Finquest team was proactive, very pleasant to work with, and professional. The information they were able to get from the CEO conversations was really good and we are now in advanced discussions with several of the companies they introduced, one of which we already acquired. As we look to 2021, I can confidently say that we shall call on Finquest to work on more projects with us.
Bruno FritschManaging Director, Wendel We hired Finquest on a divestment project for a mid-market company. We asked them to identify and connect us with potential buyers worldwide. We could not hope for a better outcome. Their coverage is great; they were able to connect us with potential buyers that we had not heard of before, several of whom ended up in the short list of selected final firm bidders. Their speed of execution is unmatched, and I don’t know of any investment bank or service provider capable of matching what Finquest did. It is worth every dollar we spent.
Clare BattellinoChief Financial Officer, I-MED I highly recommend working with the Finquest team. They quickly scanned the markets we were interested in, efficiently curated the targets and provided introductions to high quality players. A traditional investment bank or consulting process would never have been able to deliver this outcome given the fragmented and private nature of the market and targets we are interested in. And the team was a pleasure to deal with.
Leroy CouttsDirector Global Strategy & Insights, Destaco Finquest stands out with their value proposition, that helps bridge the gap between targets and acquirers for mid-market M&A deals. The project team did an outstanding job to help identify targets & partners based on pre-agreed criteria, synthesize findings and made successful connections to the key decision makers at these target companies. I would not hesitate to engage them again, or recommend their services to others looking to develop their deal pipelines. We wish Tanguy and the entire Finquest team continued success.
Alexis GrolinManaging Director, Creadev Finquest searched for very targeted opportunities in some niche segments that are of high interest to us. They connected us with CEOs of some highly relevant companies that we had not identified through our more traditional channels and databases. Definitely a great tool when you know what you are looking for.
