Financial Modelling

We quantify and present the economic substance of transactions, legislation, and legal and tax advice, by translating documentation and commercial understanding into financial models. 

Our work tests commercial assumptions, identifies risk and value drivers, and identifies discrepancies between what is commercially agreed and what is written down in transaction or policy documents.

We act joined up with our legal and valuation specialists to ensure that our models reflect legal documentation and commercial understanding. Our team of five financial modelling specialists has a wide range of experience advising corporations, investment managers and private clients. We tailor our models to clients requirements.

Our financial modelling services include:

• calculating the implications in relation to policy and legislation changes, such as the new income-based carried interest regime;
• M&A buy-side and sell-side transaction support including the distribution waterfall, capitalisation tables, and funds flow;

• translation of step papers and share purchase agreement provisions into worked examples suitable for inclusion in documentation;
