Fairstone Ireland believes a successful transaction requires integration from the outset. Partnering from the beginning facilitates a seamless future sale point.
A well planned integration process allows for gradual alignment of enhanced processes and cultures, all the while continuing to grow as a business with a seamless transfer of clients and staff at the acquisition stage.
We guarantee that:
- We never treat clients as commodities
- We never reduce client choice
- We are not tied to any products, funds, or platforms
During the integration phase, our partner firms have immediate access to Fairstone’s preferred provider institution as a group with €18 billion AUM across the UK & Ireland, as well as research from our investment committee and product support team.
Fairstone is committed to investing in you and your staff by enhancing skills and qualifications. This is done by providing valuable training and development through the Fairstone Academy, supervision and ongoing CPD support.
A key function of the integration period is growth. At Fairstone Ireland we strive to ensure that our offering gives businesses the framework they need to grow their income without compromising client service.
In a commercial sense, value creation is the result of a business’s stability and growth. We achieve this by supporting partner firms to grow during the integration phase.
We offer a number of growth services as part of our commitment to helping our partners grow, including:
- Centralised services for business pipeline & processing
- Investment, product & compliance frameworks
- Marketing and business development resources to deploy
- Business consultancy
- Access to a centralised group compliance function
- Centralised income & commission reconciliation
- Training & recruitment supports
Our approach focuses on a partnership journey rather than a single sale event transaction. A brokerage has a high degree of flexibility over the timescales of the ultimate sale.
Ultimately, the length of the integration period will depend on how much the partnering firm wishes to optimise the growth of its business and the value of its sales.
The enhanced value offering of our company provides the opportunity to further increase the sale proceeds after the point of acquisition by continuing to enhance business performance.
When it comes to growing or acquiring a business, Fairstone believes that human capital is the most valuable asset.
Our DBO model retains your human capital by ensuring your employees remain engaged & employed post-sale, with favourable ancillary staff benefits.
