M&A: Mergers and Acquisitions
Complete support for business acquisition or sale
Sell Side M&A
For clients looking to sell their business, whether partially or entirely, we provide end-to-end support throughout the M&A process. This includes guiding clients since the beginning: understanding their objectives and analysing their business, to finding buyers, negotiating contracts, leading the due diligence process, and ensuring the successful conclusion of the transaction.
M&A Buy Side
For clients interested in acquiring a business. We offer complete advisory services, assisting with identifying and analysing the best opportunities, structuring and negotiating contracts, leading the due diligence process, and structuring the necessary financing for the acquisition, if applicable.
Our clients pay R$0 until the M&A transaction is completed
A 100% success-based fee model.
We have implemented a compensation model where we do not charge any upfront fees or monthly retainers, such as a commitment fee, intermediary fee or monthly fee, for Sell Side M&A services.
We will work for free until the transaction is completed.
1. Commitment Fee
Fee charged to initiate the works. This fee ranges from tens to hundreds of thousands of Dollars and is generally non-refundable if the deal is not closed.
We value our clients, which is why we do not charge a commitment fee.
2. Intermediate Fee
The intermediate fee, which ranges from 10% to 20% of the total success fee, is charged after the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding between buyer and seller. Generally, this fee is non-refundable if the deal is not completed.
We believe we create value for our clients only when the transaction is completed, which is why we do not charge an intermediate fee.
3. Monthly Fee
A monthly fee paid to retain the advisor during the search for buyers, preparation of materials, negotiations between parties, and due diligence. Once again, the retainer fee is non-refundable if the transaction is not completed.
We do not charge any monthly retainers.
Companies that do not charge these fees operate on a model that is 100% tied to the client’s success.
We only work with a success fee
Once the transaction is concluded, we are paid a percentage of the transaction value: the amount our client actually receives for the sale of their business.
Another common method to calculate the success fee is based on the transfer value, which includes the transaction value plus the company's liabilities. This calculation basis generates a significantly higher success fee than the one used by CVPM Capital.
When comparing our prices with those of other companies, please check whether there are any additional fees and charges, and what is the basis for calculating the success fee.

Comparison with Other Companies
How can CVPM Capital's fees be so low?
We believe that traditional pricing models are not aligned with the best interests of clients. We decided to change and adopt a model where interests are 100% aligned.
By leveraging our extremely vast database, artificial intelligence technology, and a team with experience across multiple sectors, we reduce bureaucracy and improve the operational efficiency of our business.
This has enabled CVPM Capital to lower service costs and the time required to complete transactions without compromising service quality.
