Working with you through the lifecycle

HaysMac has deep experience of working with clients through the stages of growth from fundraising a start up to exit at maturity. Our team prides themselves on bringing the right advice at the right time through this journey to drive value for businesses and their owners.

In our open-plan London office, you’ll have a trusted team who can easily reach out to colleagues. Simply pick up the phone and get things sorted. This locality translates into faster responses, which helps maintain momentum when you need it the most. For private equity firms, London continues to be a hub of opportunity, and our location, expertise and responsiveness position us as a trusted partner in this space.

We are proud to support a wide range of private equity firms, offering tailored financial services throughout the investment cycle. Our work spans structuring, compliance, portfolio support and exit planning, always shaped by your strategic goals.

Services for Private Equity Firms

We support both private equity firms and their portfolio companies with advice that reflects the realities of fast-moving deals and operational growth. Our services are designed to be responsive, commercially focused and grounded in deep sector knowledge.

Here are some of the areas which we advise on, but do get in touch with anything else that we can support with:

• Acquisition due diligence and deal structuring
• Outsourced accounting and reporting solutions
• Tax-efficient structuring for funds and management teams
• Audit and assurance for both firms and portfolio businesses
• Personal tax planning for investors and founders
• Preparation for exit and IPO readiness

Where a generalist accountant might slow you down, our private equity team helps you move forward with clarity and confidence.
