South Avenue provides advisory and implementation on business improvement and accelerating growth, change and innovation, M&A and buy-outs, finance and investments.

The majority of our clients are in a stage of distress because they have relevant subjects on the agenda for which they lack the right competencies and skills.

Independent and straightforward advice. We diagnose with quick-scans up to in-depth analyses.

Our solutions are goal & result driven, pragmatic, and based on many years of experience. Our clients do appreciate that we have lived the life.

Frequent subjects on the agenda are:

  1. Deal Making We help boards, investors, and management teams prepare and complete rare deals such as mergers & acquisitions, partnerships, and buyouts.
  2. Professionalisation Falling short of targets, or the arrival of debt and new shareholders demands professionalisation. We provide what’s required.
  3. Change & Innovation Innovation and change becomes the norm. An injection of heavyweight experience can help pick up the pace.
  4. Accelerating Growth Stepping out of your comfort zone into areas new to the business? M&A, internationalisation? You need an expert.
  5. Exit Preparation Everything going to plan? Squeeze out all the value you can. Help is at hand for the final push and maximum returns.
  6. Turnaround If serious problems arise, you need to act fast and find experts to make difficult and drastic decisions.
  7. Financing & Investments We arrange financial structuring and required investments depending on the financial need and state of the company.

Quite often this comes to the fore with M&A, buy-outs, joint ventures, new shareholders on board, a new financing structure, a need for professionalisation, change, or accelerated growth.
