Capital decisions, structured with institutional discipline.
K&B Corporate Consultants is an independent advisory firm working across operational finance, project finance, structured finance and portfolio advisory. Senior practitioners, institutional analysis, and no product to sell.
Four disciplines. One analytical standard.
Most finance problems are not isolated. A weak cash conversion cycle changes what a project can carry in debt; a hedging decision changes what a balance sheet can absorb. We work across the four areas because the answers move together.

Independence is the product.
We do not distribute funds, place products, or earn commission from any counterparty. Our only revenue is the fee our client agrees with us — which is what makes the advice worth taking.
Senior-led
The person who scopes your engagement is the person who does the work. No pyramid, no handover to juniors.
Conflict-free
No products, no placement fees, no retrocessions. We are paid by you, for advice to you.
Institutional toolkit
Models, stress tests and risk analytics built to the standard a credit committee or investment committee expects.
Built to hand over
Every model, policy and process is documented and transferred. We aim to make ourselves optional.
Clients who need the analysis to hold up under scrutiny.
Corporates & sponsors
Mid-market companies, developers and infrastructure sponsors financing assets, refinancing debt, or professionalising treasury.
Family offices & private wealth
Principals and single-family offices who want an independent view on portfolio construction, risk and the managers they employ.
Institutional allocators
Pension schemes, insurers, foundations and corporate treasuries needing mandate design, analytics and governance support.
Founders & growth businesses
Companies scaling past their finance function — building forecasting, controls and the reporting investors and lenders ask for.
A four-stage engagement, priced before it starts.
You will know the scope, the deliverable and the fee before any work begins. Most engagements run on a fixed fee; longer advisory relationships run on a monthly retainer.
Scope
A short, no-obligation conversation to define the actual question, the constraints and what a good outcome looks like.
Diagnose
We read the numbers, contracts and existing models, and come back with findings — including where we disagree with the brief.
Build
The model, structure, policy or analysis is built, stress-tested and reviewed with you until it survives challenge.
Transfer
Documentation, walkthrough and handover, so your team can run and update the work without us.
Start with the question, not the engagement.
Tell us the decision you are facing. If we are not the right firm for it, we will say so and point you to who is.
