Part 1 · Commercial due diligence

Was a nine-figure acquisition worth making?

  1. Built five-year market-sizing and competitive-share models from fragmented industry data.
  2. Separated growth driven by pricing from growth driven by competitive momentum, so the investment case rested on the part that would last.

Part 2 · Market-entry strategy

Which overseas markets should an automobile-finance business enter first?

  1. Owned the market assessment across 10+ European and Latin American markets, comparing growth, regulatory risk and financing opportunity in a dashboard the client used to rank markets for entry.
  2. Designed the interview guides and led 10+ expert interviews with manufacturer executives and insurance partners.
  3. Benchmarked 15+ manufacturers, financial institutions and insurers, and reduced what we found to four partnership archetypes.
