What makes us different
We combine rigorous book analysis with discreet choreography across hiring committees, risk, and cross-border compliance—so you land where your franchise compounds.
Book-first methodology
We underwrite your client revenues: ROA, NNA cadence, product mix (DPM/Alts/Lombard), and cross-border rules by market.
Real compensation intelligence
Benchmarks by city and seniority with clarity on deferrals, clawbacks, and allowances—no guesswork.
Platform fit mapping
We compare platforms: pricing grids, credit appetite, product shelf, EAM collaboration, and digital tooling.

Fewer, sharper conversations with genuine decision-makers. Confidentiality rigor from first call to sign.
