The payments and fintech industries continue to attract significant investor interest. What’s not to like about predictable, recurring revenues, potential uplift from underutilized assets or poor partnering, and a strong M&A environment?

Glenbrook supports the investment community in two distinct ways – market and technical due diligence. The details matter in both. Knowing the right questions to ask is just a start. Knowing what the answers should be matters more. We have a process to help with both, starting with the following considerations:

Market Due Diligence

• What are the key trends arising in the industry?
• What is the market opportunity? What’s the addressable market and how well is it being served?
• How do we differentiate players within the payments value chain, in a particular sector?

Technical Due Diligence

• What are the key growth opportunities for the target?
• How sustainable is the position and strong is the differentiation? 
• How is leadership approaching the market? Is the company organized for innovation?
• What risk, fraud, and compliance issues exist for the company?
• Who are the target’s partners, what’s in each contract, and is there room for margin improvement?
• Are there new capabilities to leverage? 
• What synergies, if any, can be realized?

We have a long history of working closely with investment banks, private equity firms, venture capitalists and internal corporate development teams to help them better understand the payments and fintech markets. We have assisted with over $5 billion in executed deals over the past three years. Learn more about our recent due diligence engagements.
