Hindal's strategic advice involves recommendations on management and board composition, assisting with business planning, applying financial modelling and assessing industry conditions.

Capital Raisings
Hindal is experienced in raising capital via both private placements and public offerings for all stages of the business growth cycle. Hindal examines the funding requirements of the client and presents the strategic options available for raising those funds. Through its extensive network Hindal identifies and assesses appropriate potential investors to match the financing needs of the client. Alternatively, for a public raising (IPO, rights issue, placement), Hindal offers tactical advice and manages the complex raising process.

Mergers and Acquisitions
Hindal identifies and evaluates both acquisitions and business opportunities for its clients. Hindal will advise on the structuring of relevant transactions and facilitate or conduct the necessary analysis and approaches, then apply incisive negotiation skills and structuring expertise to best meet the objective of the client.

Divestments
Hindal's initial focus when advising on proposed divestments is to investigate and analyse the basis of the decision to divest and the client's final objective. Having obtained a clear understanding of the value and risk, Hindal advises the client of potential options and assists the client to execute the selected divestment strategy.

Succession Planning
Succession Planning requires sensitivity to the dynamics of family and corporate relationships. Hindal's experienced advisors will help balance the values and powers of family and business to achieve a functional equilibrium in times of change.
