There are a myriad of issues facing the banking and financial services industry today. An uncertain regulatory environment, combined with increasing portfolio performance challenges, is causing increased pressure on institutions’ capital bases. In addition, many institutions that previously created primary business models around an ever‐expanding and appreciating real estate market are scrambling to both redefine themselves and also raise additional capital to survive difficult tasks in a faltering economy.

 

As always, change creates opportunity. Cautious investors may find that this is a time to be on the hunt for undervalued assets, while institutions that are challenged need to unlock as much value and cash flow from their assets or business lines as possible to survive.

 

Focus Management Group has an experienced team dedicated to the banking and financial services industry. Whether it is supporting a challenged financial institution address portfolio, liquidity, management or regulatory issues or supporting a buyer in its contemplated acquisition of a financial institution or loan portfolio by providing up‐front advisory services, product line profitability analysis, asset valuation and due diligence services, Focus Management Group has an experienced team that can get the job done.

 

Focus has extensive experience assisting acquirers, banks, financial services companies and governmental agencies to achieve their financial objectives.
