The Blueprint at a glance
Discovery
An initial conversation: your business, your objectives, your timeline. No commitment on either side.
Letter of Engagement
Nothing payable on signingSigned before any information changes hands, so your identity and your figures stay confidential. It also records the success fee and when it falls due. Nothing is payable on signing.
Onboarding
You provide the data set out below. It is the basis for the Listing, the Information Memorandum and the Due Diligence Report.
More
- ID or passport and proof of address for each Seller
- Share sale: proof of ownership of the shares and the number of shares held
- Asset sale: proof of authority to sell the in-scope assets of the Target
- As much as you are comfortable sharing: financial and accounting, corporate secretarial, tax filings, legal and employment, cost documentation such as leases and subscriptions, IT, assets, liabilities and customer-level revenue data
- Supporting documents are best. A bare statement will do, but buyers will ask anyway
- Your asking price
- Your requirements for any terms and conditions of the Term Sheet or SPA
Publish Listing for the Target
An anonymised listing of the Target goes live to verified buyers.
Information Memorandum
Prepared from your Target-level data and released to buyers under NDA.
Due Diligence Report
Prepared from your supporting documents, so buyer questions are answered before they are asked. A Disclosure Letter is drawn from the DDR findings and attached to the SPA to qualify the warranties you give.
Match Buyers to create a Brokering
Each matched buyer opens a Brokering: one buyer, one Target, one tracked process.
Facilitation of Brokerings
Questions, site visits and management meetings with each matched buyer, run through us.
Term Sheet
Headline terms agreed with the chosen buyer: price, structure, conditions, timetable.
Sale and Purchase Agreement
The binding contract, with the Disclosure Letter attached.
Facilitation of Brokering Completion
Success fee falls due hereConditions satisfied, Purchase Price paid, shares or assets transferred.
Why owners sell through us
The buyers are already looking
We hold live acquisition mandates. Your business is put in front of buyers who have told us what they are looking for, rather than left on a page waiting to be found.
Gated and verified on both sides
Listings are visible to verified members only. Every member is identity-verified through Singpass and every entity is verified against ACRA, and an NDA binds every account before a listing can be opened.
Anonymous until you choose otherwise
The business stays anonymous until you decide to be known, so your staff, your customers and your competitors learn nothing. Your identity is released only to a buyer who has already signed.
Listings structured the way the sale is
You may appoint others to act for you on the platform, and listings of the same company can be grouped, share sale or asset sale, as you choose.
One process, one deal room
The information memorandum, disclosure letter and due-diligence pack are generated from your own inputs, with what is in and what is still missing tracked and every change logged. Term sheet and sale and purchase agreement templates are configured by the parties, and your own advisers review before signing.
We are paid when you are
Our fee falls due on completion. Nothing to list, nothing to browse, and nothing at all if the deal does not close.
One flat fee structure
No upfront fees.
One fee, paid by the seller on completion. Nothing is payable to create a listing, nothing is payable to browse, and nothing is payable if the business does not sell.
