Our Client Profile
Our specialty is in assisting companies with extensive prospects for development or growth; we provide them with the creative strategic planning required to ensure they successfully overcome any and all financial or management-related challenges that may arise during the process. Our ideal client profile is usually a company owned by a family or a group of independent professionals, of a certain size and with a tried and tested ability to generate ideas, sales and earnings. Our business scope is global, although we specialize in companies with decision-making centers on the Iberian Peninsula or led by either a Spanish or a Portuguese team, and with growth prospects. Río Negro stands in a unique position to identify opportunities for acquisition and provide the necessary means (management systems as well as a valuable network of domestic and international contacts) in order to develop and boost the expansion of such companies in an orderly fashion without generating any drop in their operations’ profitability.
