Our review of highlights, challenges, and success stories in 2023
The market is challenging companies in the areas of growth, performance and value creation. Our clients rely on our expertise and many years of experience to drive decarbonization, digitalization and deglobalization across sectors. Many companies in various sectors are increasingly trying to implement their transformation strategy through smaller, targeted M&A transactions in order to keep pace with rapid change and gain a competitive advantage.
The international environment continues to be characterized by major uncertainties. With regard to the economic situation in Switzerland, the industrial sector in particular has been and continues to be challenged. Despite an initial interest rate cut by the Swiss National Bank (SNB) in spring 2024, it is important to keep an eye on creditworthiness in light of upcoming (re-)financing. On the one hand, we provide the latest sector expertise in a targeted manner and, on the other, we use our unique capabilities in corporate finance. Through dialog, we tap into the potential to create value for our clients and their stakeholders.
