Providing solutions that recognize your uniqueness
About Us
We have a strong focus on innovative companies. You need insightful advice on how to structure and finance the growth in your business. You may not possess the time to educate consultants about your industry, so you need an advisory team that understands your issues, hits the ground running and adds value from day one.
We empower you to focus upon your unique skills and competencies and lead you along the learning curve of handling the organizational and financial impact of rapid growth and the strains which this inevitably places upon you.
We understand that every company has its own unique DNA and that advisory services should respect that uniqueness, deploying external expertise as necessary to provide you with market leading advisory services that support sustainable business and financing strategies.
If you are a prospective investor, we will work with you to pinpoint your investment goals, either as a direct hands-on management partner or a portfolio based financial partner. We will map out an objective and unbiased analysis of investment opportunities, adapted to your strategy. If your strategy is fund-based, then we will build investment portfolios with the risk and diversification profiles you seek.

What We Do
CORPORATE ADVISORY SERVICES
are underpinned by an assessment of your position within your own industry and context. We have a particular focus upon fintech, banking, real estate, retail agribusiness, infrastructure and renewable energy, and can readily access expertise in any other sector. The overriding aim is to understand the uniqueness of your business and work with you to maximize its potential. A mandate may involve capital structuring; strategic advisory; debt restructuring; valuations; or IPO advisory .
MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS
take many forms, such as; selling a stake in a high potential fast growing company to a venture capital group; consolidating later phase expansion through capital injection from a private equity partner; or identifying and negotiating strategic partnerships. We can call upon a network of contacts with key players and pools of capital, regionally and globally.
CAPITAL MARKETS
will play an increasing role in the region in the coming decade, and funding options for growing businesses will become increasingly diverse and complex. We can walk you through those options most appropriate to your business, such as private placements; loan syndication; securitizations; or acquisition finance.
FUND MANAGEMENT
is a huge industry in itself and the principal global investment vehicle, across the whole range of private and institutional investors, although it is strictly speaking just one area of capital markets. Bay Hawks is primarily active in regional funds with sector specializations, capturing value both for domestic and foreign investors in the region. We can offer support in fund concept development; sourcing seed capital; specialist sector advisory; fund management; or risk management.
