A strategic transaction can be defined as an event that defines the future direction of the business or organization. It may involve an acquisition, divestures, financing, or joint venture. Regardless of the nature of the transaction, it is MCTG Consulting’s mission to engage all necessary corporations, regulatory authorities and other stakeholders to deliver an outcome for our clients that fully implements their strategic vision and meets their goals.
Company boards play a significant role in overseeing transactions that achieve strategic business outcomes. Strategic transactions can be catalysts for innovation and growth. Whether through acquisitions, joint ventures or other deals, transactions can ignite fresh ideas, unlock new talent and redefine the future trajectory of a company. Some companies seize opportunities during market downturn, while others stay ahead by meticulously planning their transaction strategies and identifying key execution triggers.
It can be noted without any doubt that the path to transformation is fraught with risks, especially in our complex and uncertain environment. This could be where company boards play a significant role.
With nearly half of the transaction leaders admitting they often miss the mark on delivering intended value, the need for robust company board oversight has never been greater. Company boards, legislatively have the unique ability to steer companies through these challenges and drive superior business outcomes through their oversight.
To support company boards in this critical role during uncertain times, the MCTG Consulting Transactions team engages with company directors, subject matter experts, and relies on research and survey data from across its network. Our work uncovers significant considerations for directors as they guide management through the risks and opportunities at each stage of the deal making, including various types of transactions companies may pursue, such as mergers and acquisitions (M&A), joint ventures, strategic partnerships, divestments and corporate venture building.
Before making decisions for a business transaction, your company needs information on all aspects of a merger, acquisition, or restructuring to minimize risks and maximize the value. MCTG Consulting provides clients with transaction services to give them the clearest understanding of their financial opportunities, including risks.
It can without any doubt be noted that, whether through acquisitions, joint ventures or other deals, transactions can ignite fresh ideas, unlock new talent and redefine the future trajectory of a company.
