Solutions

Simple solutions to complex problems

Structured finance

Through this activity, we support companies in managing their short-, medium-, and long-term financing needs by identifying the most suitable financial solutions based on their specific requirements and business context.

We assist in structuring pool financing arrangements, debt restructuring, project finance transactions, bond issuances, and the definition of credit lines to support working capital.

M&A

Kon assists entrepreneurs throughout all stages of the capital opening process (sell-side), from initial contact to closing , providing support in negotiations and due diligence to minimize risk, accelerate timelines, and maximize value.

Kon also supports companies and financial institutions in acquisition processes (buy-side), helping secure the most favorable conditions for successful integrations.

Management Control & Performance Management

Kon supports entrepreneurs and their teams in managing the business by defining clear strategic objectives and identifying key performance indicators (KPIs) to be monitored on a regular basis.

Our services include the redesign of management control systems — particularly reporting structures — and the development of annual budgets, along with interim result analysis and the definition of corrective actions when needed.

Strategic finance

We support companies seeking to assess the financial sustainability of their strategy and to evaluate the impact of changes to the business’s key variables — both over the medium to long term (business and financial planning) and in the short term (financial and treasury budgeting).

Through this activity, we help entrepreneurs translate their ideas into actionable plans and present them effectively to investors, lenders, and internal stakeholders.

Governance, Organization Risk & Compliance

Kon assists enterprises in reviewing business processes and procedures to enhance both effectiveness and efficiency, by identifying key risks and implementing appropriate corrective actions.

Our services include business support in the following areas:

  • Corporate Governance: analysis and design of organizational and governance structures; definition of delegations and powers; legal and corporate affairs.
  • Risk & Compliance: compliance with Legislative Decree 231/2001, Law 262/2005, anti-corruption, anti-money laundering, antitrust, transfer pricing, privacy regulations; risk management (ERM, process mapping and event identification, business risk assessment and management); internal audit.
  • Human Resources & Organization: process and procedure mapping and design; performance appraisal systems; reward systems; organizational development and change management; IT impacts and system developments.

Sustainability

For us, sustainability is both a strategic lever and a cross-cutting component of business operations. This is why we integrate ESG principles into all of our services — whether strategic, financial, or organizational.

Sustainability is never addressed in isolation; rather, it is embedded in every management consulting project we undertake.

We support companies in developing an integrated strategic vision, embedding sustainability into their core business practices, and defining and quantifying its impacts — including economic and financial impacts — to provide entrepreneurs with all the tools they need to assess how best to achieve their sustainable development goals, in alignment with the UN SDGs.
