Why Adeson
Institutional experience.
Independent advice.
Adeson Advisors brings together the institutional experience of a global investment bank, the perspective of a senior banking executive and the independence of a boutique advisory firm.
The firm is led by Kevin Adeson, whose career spans close to four decades across global banking, leveraged finance and capital markets.
This experience informs the way Adeson Advisors approaches its clients today: with an understanding of how major financial institutions assess risk and capital, combined with the independence and discretion to focus solely on the client’s objectives.

Independent advice. Institutional experience. Global relationships.
How We Work
Independent.
Senior-led.
Relationship-driven.
Every mandate begins with understanding the situation. We take time to understand the client’s objectives, the underlying transaction and the constraints surrounding it before considering potential solutions.
From there, our role may involve strategic advice, structuring, identifying counterparties, facilitating introductions or helping coordinate a transaction through to execution. We remain close to the process throughout.
The objective, the circumstances and the opportunity.
The available structures, counterparties and routes forward.
The relevant banks, lenders, investors and strategic relationships.
Helping maintain alignment and momentum through the transaction.
The Adeson Approach
Five principles that
define the practice.
The way we work is deliberate. Each mandate is handled with the confidentiality, independence and senior attention that private financial matters require.
Private financial matters require a high degree of confidentiality, judgement and care.
We provide an independent perspective, focused on the client's objectives rather than a predetermined product or institutional solution.
Our network provides relationships across banking, lending, private capital and strategic counterparties.
Clients work directly with senior leadership throughout the advisory relationship.
We remain deliberately selective about the situations and relationships we take on, allowing us to stay close to each mandate.
