McKinsey’s approach to Corporate Finance McKinsey takes a holistic long-term approach to corporate finance, rather than regarding it as a collection of disparate elements and extraordinary events. Our engagements are based on an on-going relationship with our clients, providing a tailored, innovative approach to problem-solving, with active participation of client top-management in the project team. In this way we can provide our core service – finding ways to structurally create lasting, sustainable value for our clients.
We approach each client situation from the perspective of the CEO and the Board of Directors, dealing with a range of issues significantly broader than that of many financial advisors. On any engagement, our involvement may for example include developing a long-term corporate transformation strategy; providing execution support for a merger, acquisition or spin-off; and assisting in the linkage to Post-Merger Management to ensure the capture of maximum value from the transaction. We can thus combine strategic, financial and organizational capabilities into a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.
