CHALLENGING
CONVENTIONS, ASSUMPTIONS AND CONCLUSIONS
We identify strategies that other may dismiss or see as too risky. We support our clients, so they have the confidence to make bold decisions. We fight our corner defending our clients’ interests at every turn.
We deliver clear opinions and understandable advice (that inspires action). We tell it how it is. We say exactly what we mean. Without false bonhomie, with genuine care and concern.

WHAT WE DO
CAPITAL CRUSADERS IS THE QUARRY
Succeeding in corporate finance takes finesse. We take good ideas and run with them all the way to partners that we know will get them and back them.
We’ll be there to cover and protect you all the way through – we’ll test your plans to make sure they’re bombproof and structure the transaction when it’s ready.
We’re also skilled negotiators so we’ll always make sure everyone is on-side. A good idea is a good idea whatever the sector, but we’ve done most of our deals in Media & Digital Media, Gaming, Food, Beverage, and Consumer Oriented Business
