Working alongside FTI Consulting’s industry experts, our team enables clients to assess the risks and opportunities of an M&A transaction and reflect them in valuation impacts and contractual safeguards, delivering a comprehensive, decision-ready view that strengthens our clients’ position throughout the deal process.
