Cross Border Mergers and Acquisitions for Fortune 500 and small businesses. In summary, EuroConsult is a boutique investment bank with offices here on Park Avenue in New York, as well as London, Frankfurt and Prague. Engage in a broad range of M&A activity, but pretty well recognized by many Fortune 1,000 and smaller companies as buy-side M&A specialists, with a long and documented track record of systematically finding and bringing $10 million - $200 million add-on acquisitions to clients in non auction situations through a somewhat proprietary process. Ultimately, we create an on-going “pipeline” of opportunities, ensuring that our clients never find themselves starting at ground zero searching for new targets when negotiations with one target may happen to break down or after the client finishes the often labor intensive process of actually closing an acquisition.
