McCall & Partners


McCall & Partners, leverage years of experience in global capital markets, private equity, company re-engineering and liquidity events, working with dynamic companies, their owners and stakeholders, by developing business strategy, goals and objectives. We work to shape and form financial modelling, socialising the business and, defining shareholder needs towards trade sale or IPO aspirations.





Practice areas


McCall Research has long been turning over stones, making observations and formulating a view on matters affecting clients now and in the future. And because we are independent, we are not afraid to take a view, and give clients plenty to think about.


We are committed to 'company side' advice, offering guidance through routes to liquidity events for fast-growing businesses. McCall enters into partnership with owners and managers, helping to articulate and implement the appropriate strategy to match aspirations.


"The McCall objective is simply to be the preferred partners of entrepreneurs, investors and stakeholders, helping companies which will positively impact on society as a whole".

Bill McCall, Principal


Finding the Route to Value


McCall & Partners was founded in the last Century. Since that time we have advised and been in the midst of many liquidity events, restructurings, trade sales and IPO processes. So called "liquidity events". These being the culmination of our strategic input to the growth and advancement strategies of client companies.

 

There has rarely been a business in existence that did not begin with a sound commercial logic, without a market for its services and a determination to develop them to lead the market. All with a spark of inspiration, tenacity to get going, and sheer effort to deliver.

 

Otherwise there would be no investors, no leaders and no staff.

 

What we do is to commit to listen, to observe and understand a business that has things to do, needs a reset or has lost its way. And then offer a credible way forward based on knowledge, experience and track record of finding that best way forward that got us invited to listen in the first place. We work with investors, owners, leaders and managers who value the perspective we can bring. Finding the Route to Value.

 

McCall & Partners has a reputation for straight down the middle impartial advice and the confidence to only accept assignments and projects where we believe we can help create value and a desired outcome. If not, we decline, or resign, and move on.

 

Over the piece we have made long lasting relationships with investing institutions, banks, executives and professional advisers. All of our business comes from recommendation and we can point back to our earliest client engagments as the genesis of all that has happened.

 

Unlocking potential, restoring value, reclaiming value, imaginatively leveraging neglected assets? Count us in.

 

Relationships are key in old fashioned advisory Firms, and if that is considered "old fashioned" we are happy to be so.

Creating Value - The "Value" Pyramid



Whilst all around are preaching 'added value' we aim to go one step further by working alongside clients to 'create value'. This is not just the talk, it's the walk we have taken with many clients in the last decade.

 

We aim to encourage and coach clients to take steps and do things they would never have thought of doing themselves.

 

It's bold, tangential thinking and never more of the same. If you keep doing the same old things, unsurprisingly, you will reap the same results.




McCall Research

McCall Research believes that everything begins and ends with knowledge and understanding, on top of which, an ability to communicate to those it might affect creates a provider of choice, in a market where lots of noise and vested interests exist. 

We aim to be the provider of insightful, yet sensible and cutting edge analysis covering the economy, market sectors and unquoted companies, by providing clients with enough to think about, and making them step back, breathe and benefit.
