Twenty-two sectors across five groups: real estate, infrastructure and data centres; oil and gas, power and utilities, renewable energy, metals and mining and chemicals; industrials, business services, transportation and maritime; consumer and retail, food and beverage, healthcare and sports; and technology, media and telecom, the innovation economy, financial institutions, financial sponsors and the public sector.
Many sector pages carry a genuinely executed Matchpoint transaction, with client identities redacted and disclosed only under NDA. Where we are building named coverage, the page sets out our senior sector credentials and transferable capability honestly, rather than overstating a track record.
Practice areas describe what we do — equity, debt, M&A, alternatives and execution. Industries describe who we serve. Most mandates combine both: a sector view and the right capital product.
Matchpoint works primarily on a success fee, with a modest retainer to cover execution. Fees are agreed in writing up front and scaled to the size and complexity of the transaction — with no hidden costs.
Most mandates reach a first term sheet within 30 days, depending on diligence readiness and structure; closing follows once terms are agreed.
A short, confidential scoping call and NDA; we structure the requirement and prepare materials, then run a competitive process across our 5,000+ investor and lender relationships, and negotiate to close — with a partner leading at every step.
