Our Team

Our professionals come from a variety of disciplines, including investment banking, restructuring, consulting, legal and operations. It is through this unique mix of experience that we are able to develop our own projects and ventures, while offering our clients the precise solutions necessary to successfully fulfill their investment and advisory needs. The unique difficulties presented by “offshore” situations require extensive experience to navigate successfully. It is our policy that one of our senior professionals works directly with every client and oversees all aspects of each transaction. We believe that only through the experience of our senior professionals can a transaction rise to its highest potential. Unlike many individual investors who lack the hands-on operational experience, Berkeley Square is able to identify investment opportunities, assets and companies, and execute complex strategies for the benefit of our clients and investors.
