Track record matters
Ask for case studies and references from completed transactions in your industry and size range. A firm that has successfully closed deals similar to yours will navigate the process more effectively.
Alignment of incentives
The best advisory relationships are built on aligned incentives. Success-fee models ensure your advisor is motivated to maximise your outcome, not just generate activity.
Process and communication
A good advisor will lay out a clear process timeline, set expectations upfront, and keep you informed at every stage. If a firm can't articulate their process clearly, that's a red flag.
Regional expertise
For cross-border transactions in Asia, local knowledge is not optional. Your advisor should understand the regulatory landscape, cultural nuances, and buyer dynamics in your market.
