The question isn’t whether to do deals but how to do them so that they create sustainable value. Our answer: Use M&A as an integral part of your global growth strategy, plan for opportunities long before they arise, and build a repeatable acquisition model honed through frequent, continuous deal making. Our M&A advisory experts can help you every step of the way to:

• Improve your odds of success by honing your M&A strategy and objectives, developing your M&A team and capabilities, and building a repeatable process.
• Take due diligence to the next level with a fact-based, rigorously quantified assessment that helps you ward off deal fever, spot synergies others miss, and prepare for integration long before the deal is inked.
• Capture maximum value from corporate acquisitions with a battle-tested approach to integration that mitigates the many risks that can undercut a deal’s anticipated synergies. Companies that turn to Bain for integration support realize 18% more value, on average, than those that don’t.
• Attain the highest possible return from divestitures by preparing the asset for sale, running a low-risk carve-out program and shaping the remaining business to thrive post-transaction. We can also help you maximize the value of spin-offs and joint ventures and alliances.
