OC&C Strategy Consultants

Founded 30 years ago, we are a global strategy consulting firm with offices across Europe, North and South America, and Asia, including Shanghai and Hong Kong.

Our capabilities range from transaction to strategy realization, helping our clients – Corporate and Private Equity – address the most complex business issues.

We support Private Equity firms and other investors throughout the investment lifecycle - from initial investment strategy and deal origination through to the disposal of assets.

Our expertise is focused on a few core sectors – Consumer Goods and Retail, TMT, B2B Services and Industrials – allowing us to 'hit the ground running' and focus on solving client issues rather than learning about their sector.

We use our deep sector knowledge to identify and qualify potential M&A strategies and targets. In due diligence, we develop a comprehensive outside-in perspective, using secondary and primary research, including industry expert and customer interviews, assessing targets’ performance, capabilities and plans. After the deal, our operational improvement expertise is often brought to bear on newly purchased assets (e.g. ‘100 day planning’, integration of targets into existing assets).

Subsequently, we help our clients with growth acceleration, value creation or turnaround strategies, provide support for re-capitalisations, and help determine optimal exit timing in light of economic and industry sector developments.

Finally, we assist with exit strategy and conduct vendor due diligence (VDD) to support the realisation of maximum potential value.

We work with a wide range of renowned Private Equity clients, both globally and locally.
