Acretus Advisory is a sector-focused investment bank specialising in M&A and capital raises across Education, Healthcare, Industrials and Consumer sectors.
Acretus Advisory LLP is an independent investment banking firm committed to delivering objective, high-quality financial advice to growth-stage and established companies. We work closely with founders, promoters and institutional stakeholders to create meaningful outcomes — whether through strategic acquisitions, divestitures or capital raises.
Our approach combines rigorous financial analysis with nuanced sector understanding, enabling us to identify opportunities and structure transactions that others may overlook.
We believe the best advisory relationships are built on trust, transparency and a genuine alignment of interests. Our role is not simply to close a transaction — it is to ensure that every deal we advise on creates enduring value for our clients.
— The Acretus Ethos
Our Focus Areas
We concentrate our efforts in sectors where our team has built meaningful relationships, proprietary insight and a track record of successful transactions.
01 / Mergers & Acquisitions
We guide promoters and shareholders through every stage of a sale process — from valuation and positioning, through investor outreach, to term sheet negotiation and deal closure. Our sector focus means we can identify the most relevant strategic and financial acquirers and run a process that maximises value.
02 / Fund Raise Advisory
We help high-growth businesses raise primary capital from private equity funds, family offices, strategic investors and venture capital. Our deep relationships with the investor community allow us to identify the right capital partner — one aligned with your growth ambitions and governance philosophy.
03 / Buy-Side Advisory
For strategic acquirers and private equity sponsors pursuing inorganic growth, we provide end-to-end buy-side advisory — from target screening and approach through to due diligence support and negotiation. We act as a trusted extension of your M&A team.
04 / Strategic Advisory
Beyond transactions, we advise boards and management teams on strategic matters — partnership evaluations, business restructuring, ownership transition planning and competitive positioning. Our independence ensures advice that is genuinely in your best interests.
Our team brings together decades of combined experience in investment banking, private equity and sector-specific advisory. We are practitioners, not generalists — each member of our leadership brings deep domain expertise and an established network within their respective sectors.
