Netideas' main objective is to provide its clients with independent and creative advice of the highest quality on an international basis. Unlike many of the players in this sector that are dominated by trading and principal activities, Netideas is purely focused on providing advice for mergers, acquisitions, valuations and financings.

1. Acquisitions & Disposals

Company Purchases

We help Turkish and Foreign companies identify acquisition targets which meet their strategic objectives, primarily in Turkey and in Continental Europe.

Utilising our extensive network of contacts, industry knowledge and specialist databases, we research and identify targets which meet the criteria. We prepare a detailed report on targets' strengths and weaknesses and present to you our preliminary assessment.

We typically handle the initial approach and help the sensitive process of discussions leading to an agreement and the formulation of a carefully-structured offer. Such a structuring is critical and must take proper account of issues such as taxation, pension funding, employment rights and capital investment needs.

As an independent firm, our objective is to achieve the best possible terms for our clients.

Typically, the scope of our activities for a buy-side advisory mandate would involve:

	Preparation of an outline of key requirements of the acquirer
	Search for and identification of targets
	Approach to potential targets
	Advice on tactics and negotiation of terms and conditions of the transaction

Company Disposals

	Depending on your requirements, we can be very discreet in our disposal activities, or mobilise larger-scale stakeholder attention according to your requirements.
	We typically start with a strategy analysis and consider whether that disposal is indeed the best option for you.

	We help you establish price expectations and realistic valuation parameters. We are able to involve taxation and industry specialists to ensure the most beneficial environment for the sale.
	We identify and assess prospective purchasers, nationally and internationally, and design and draft the disposal information memorandum. Clearly, the written material that will be instrumental in achieving a successful sale will always need to be tailored to the business in view

Typically, the scope of our activities for a sell-side advisory mandate would involve:

	preparation of a sale memorandum
	identification of, and approach to potential purchasers
	appropriate confidentiality letters to be signed by potential purchasers
	evaluation of offers received
	tactics and negotiation of terms and conditions of the transaction
	co-ordination of professional advisers.

2. Business Plans, Valuations and Appraisals

Netideas Partners has the in-house capability of preparing for its clients full business plans, through leading edge modeling skills, fieldwork assessment approach and hands-on business planning experience.

We appraise your strategic objectives and employ creative techniques in quantification and verification of your business' value.

We do not take the issue of valuation simply as a scientific process, and consider all parameters, such as goodwill, market share, management quality.

3. Financing Advisory

Netideas acts as an independent advisor to its clients with respect to optimizing the finance mix they may want to raise, comparing objectively all available sources without having the conflict of interest caused by other principal activities.

Our scope of advice typically comprises the following products, or any mix thereof:

	corporate debt
	debt private placements
	export credit
	limited/non-recourse finance, including project finance

Netideas, through its knowledge and expertise in each of these markets, is ideally placed to

	design the optimal term sheet with you according to your needs, and the situation of the debt markets;
	advise you objectively on the choice of the appropriate sources of finance;
	create, wherever possible, competitive pressure between sources of finance to obtain the most favorable deal for you;
	ensure smooth communication between your advisors, lenders and their advisors;
	coordinate the various sources of finance in a multi-sourced transaction in order to obtain an inter-creditor agreement as favorable as possible to you;
	accompany you to financial close throughout the documentation phase.

Especially for geographic locations where the sources of finance may seem constrained, Netideas has a strong capability to mobilise appropriate sources of finance quickly and efficiently. Conversely, for transactions where availability of finance is less of an issue, Netideas' expertise is most useful in creating the competitive pressure between finance providers in order to ensure best value for its clients.
