CMi2i Advisory Solutions

 

 

Whether it is a M&A situation, hostile takeover, re-domiciliation, proxy battle or other transaction, CMi2i will provide the crucial intelligence you need to ensure a positive outcome. Being one step ahead in any of these situations depends on knowing who your shareholders are and what level of support you have. CMi2i’s unrivalled ability to determine the beneficial owners of shares, including who has the vote, enables our clients to gain the edge they need to get their transaction over the line.

A crucial part of our transactional support is real-time, rolling shareholder and bondholder identification. Even if stock positions change during the course of the event, you have the most up-to-date information possible.

In addition to the solutions below, we also provide non-publicised intelligence services. Please contact us to discuss your exact situation.
