Our Company

What We Do

We provide merger and acquisition (M&A) advisory, financing solutions and management consulting services to corporations and institutions.

The relationships with our clients are based on mutual trust and openness, and our goal is to build successful, long-term prospects for both sides.

We are accustomed to working intensively in a dynamic and result-oriented environment with our clients, partners and employees. This is why we only take on projects in which we know we will be able to perform while maintaining our business and ethical principles intact, and when we know we can meet the expectations of our clients.

In all of our engagements, protecting our client’s business is the highest priority for us. We treat our client’s business as our own and insure confidentiality at every step or the process.

Our Philosophy

We embrace a set of values by which we conduct our business and ourselves on behalf of our clients.

Exclusively Dedicated to the Success of Our Clients
Our remuneration is always based on an exclusive agreement with our client and largely conditional to the realized transaction value with the major part being due upon finalization of the envisaged transaction, and therefore directly linked to our client’s success. This is why it is in our core interest to accomplish our clients’ goals in the most efficient and successful way.

Intelligent and Insightful Solutions
High quality, thoughtful and creative advice is a key success factor of our client work. We provide our clients with insightful ideas and innovative solutions to complex strategic and financial issues. Our goal is to supply intelligent solutions, which broaden the scope of strategic options available to our clients.

Long-term Commitment and Personal Involvement of Partners in Projects
Persistent personal commitment to daily project work and a focus on the long-term success of our clients are the key principles of our business. This is why our partners are closely involved in assignments from initiation to completion, ensuring that our clients benefit from their experience and expertise at all stages. We are committed to delivering execution of the highest quality.

Integrity and Confidentiality
We understand the need to handle the most sensitive assignments with absolute discretion to secure the competitive and tactical advantage for our clients.

Global Reach

PNL has a global reach through an extensive network of contacts and strategic relationships.

The world is smaller and companies conduct business internationally. We’ve long understood this and have secured and managed value-enhancing business transactions on a truly global scale. In fact, over half of PNL’s transaction volume involves cross-border relationships.

Our global experience and vast network of international contacts allow us to identify international partners and engineer the highest value transactions for our clients. For our M&A clients, PNL can efficiently identify strategic and financial investors around the world who often see great value in establishing a foothold in Bulgaria.

Similarly, we can assist a local company’s growth strategy by tapping into our global network to identify and expand into markets in Europe and beyond.

Our relationships are vast and span the globe across private companies, public companies, financial sponsors and accredited investors.
