Client testimonial

Davor Meštrović

Expertise, professionalism, reliability, are all distinctions which any entrepreneur would bravely wish for in his advisory team for an extremly demanding and complex M&A process. My partners and I got exactly that from Ascendant's advisory team by engaging them to prepare our company for the capital market with the aim to find a suitable financial partner. In every phase of the process, which is in it's nature stressful, uncertain and very demanding in respect of competence it requires, our advisors have seized with their knowledge, devotion and „game plan", which is rooted in their exceptional local and international experience, their work on numerous transactions and full understanding of processes in even the most sensitive transactions. A real refreshment after our previous experiences with advisors.

The best promotional tool and a recommendation for any product or service is a satisfied customer. In the selection of advisors for any future M&A process in Croatia or across borders we have already made our choice.
