Collectively, CRP partners have successfully completed over 200 transactions and raised in excess of $2.0 billion in debt and equity financing. CRP’s financial sophistication, operating/corporate governance expertise, and broad-based contacts guide clients through the transaction process to achieve exceptional results.

Many CRP principals have considerable senior operating and corporate governance experience providing a firsthand understanding of the issues and challenges facing CRP clients. CRP’s network of industry specific advisors provide further perspective and judgment in support of client engagements.
APPROACH
CRP believes that quality advice is rendered only through a thorough understanding of a client’s company and financial objectives.
Initially, we undertake a fundamental analysis of a client’s business, developing a realistic assessment of its operational strengths and weaknesses.
We then utilize the analysis to develop a range of alternatives/ideas to address the issues at hand and to prepare appropriate collateral materials with which to approach prospective partners.
Finally, CRP uses its extensive network and market knowledge to identify prospective investors or acquirors, develop competitive proposals, and assist clients in evaluating and driving the process to a successful closing.
CRITERIA
CRP has no set criteria concerning client engagements, evaluating all opportunities based on the specific facts and circumstances. Our engagements have included the manufacturing, healthcare, specialty finance, insurance, telecommunications, distribution, technology, and real estate industries.
