About the Firm

Strategic corporate finance.

GuidePoint executes complex, intensive corporate undertakings for private companies and enterprises that investment banks typically do not perform.

Private Enterprise Finance

Complex initiatives—whether it is a multi-phase commercial development, an international joint venture, or scaling a venture with novel IP—require more than a quick transaction. We step in to engineer the financial architecture of these undertakings from the ground up. We help clients by mapping out the corporate strategy, structuring the required entities, and actively managing the capital formation over the full lifecycle of the project, providing the steady, multi-year execution that transformative ventures demand.

“

Investment banks are constrained by rigid mandates and a standardized, transaction-driven business model, precluding them from multi-year engagements as well as most private businesses. We built GuidePoint to support long-term corporate finance strategies, providing the sustained support those undertakings require.

We add value by exposing the business to a wider audience of buyers, including individual and corporate buyers from overseas.
