ILEX advisory professionals
serve as trusted senior advisors to top corporate officers and
boards of directors, helping them devise strategies for
enhancing shareholder value. We believe this relationship-based
approach to our advisory business gives us a competitive
advantage in serving a distinct need in the market today.
Furthermore, we believe our advisory business is differentiated
from that of our competitors in the following respects:
- Objective Advice with a Long-Term Perspective. We
seek to recommend shareholder value enhancement strategies
or other financial strategies that we would pursue ourselves
were we acting in management’s capacity. This approach often
includes advising our clients against pursuing transactions
that we believe do not meet that standard.
- Transaction Execution. Since our inception, we have
built a reputation of quality and excellence in transaction
execution. As a result, our clients trust us with
some of the most important and complicated mergers,
acquisitions, sale processes, divestitures, special
committee advisory assignments, recapitalizations and
restructurings.
- Independence and Confidentiality. The ILEX
Group is not engaged in securities underwriting, trading,
research or the numerous other businesses conducted by large
investment banks and commercial banks. This enables us to
avoid the potential conflicts that may arise from these
activities at larger, more diversified competitors. In
addition, our commitment to discretion and the smaller size
of our firm enable us to provide our clients with strict
confidentiality.
- Senior Level Attention and Experience. The Senior
Managing Directors in our advisory business participate in
all facets of client interaction, from the initial
evaluation phase to the final stage of executing our
recommendations. Unlike many larger financial institutions,
our senior professionals are directly involved from the
beginning to the end of every transaction.
