Eight Advisory Annual Report 2023
In the wake of turbulent global change, Eight Advisory's 2023 Annual Report reflects a year of our collective resilience and growth. Amid geopolitical turmoil, climate concerns and technological advances, Eight Advisory has once again proved its commitment to acting as a compass and safe harbour for our clients, embodying an entrepreneurial spirit and unwavering commitment to excellence.
Truly global reach
With an international presence and a team of over 850 professionals and more than 100 partners from various fields and sectors we ensure client proximity and local expertise. The success of our international strategy has been demonstrated with 19 % growth and our 200+ international team spread across offices in London, Frankfurt, Munich, Cologne, Hamburg, Brussels, Amsterdam and Zurich. In order to serve our clients’ needs even better we opened new offices in strategic locations. From the sunny shores of Spain to the bustling markets of New York, these new offices are a sign that we are even more committed to serving our clients with precision and efficiency.
Our pan-European identity is complemented by more than 30 partner countries through the global consultancy Eight International and by the likely addition of new distant markets.
New services lines and offers
Throughout 2023, without exception, all our service lines – from Transaction Support to Restructuring, from Financial Engineering to Tax, from Strategy to Transformation – have flourished, reflecting our clients’ different needs. To better respond to their evolving demands, we have broadened our range of services to include Legal Advisory in France, ESG Advisory, Energy and Infrastructure Strategy, equipping clients with the tools needed to evolve in a rapidly changing landscape. By embracing innovation and foresight, Eight Advisory reaffirms its commitment to delivering holistic solutions and global impact. Our ultimate goal is to be able to offer our clients a complete suite of solutions for creating and sustaining value regardless of their business position or lifecycle.
Our greatest asset – our people
Our goal is to remain a firm where our current and future team members will come looking for personal and collective success, individual fulfilment, the excitement that comes with working on projects that lie at the heart of the European economy, but also for the exceptional team bond that we have created together. From analyst to partner, we all share the same goal: technical and intellectual excellence accompanied by a profound respect for the worthy and transcendent talents of each individual.
At Eight Advisory, we emphasise the holistic development of our team members through comprehensive human resources initiatives. We offer a wide range of professional development opportunities for our people to enhance skills, mobility and engagement. From tailored “soft skills” training to dynamic business development programmes, Eight Advisory grows people, helping shape their careers and make meaningful contributions to the firm’s mission.
Social responsibility
As a responsible company, Eight Advisory attaches great importance to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) initiatives. From reducing its carbon footprint to promoting diversity within its own ranks, the company is committed to making a positive impact on society and the environment. Through active engagement and collaboration, Eight Advisory strives to create an inclusive and equitable work environment where every voice is heard and valued.
Pascal Raidron, Managing Partner Eight Advisory said: “We are proud of what we have achieved so far, but we are by no means complacent. We intend to pursue this steadfast course, which has transformed our long-standing partners into pioneering entrepreneurs, and which shall inspire our future team members to become the custodians of this wondrous human and professional adventure that is Eight Advisory. To echo Warren Buffet <<Time is the friend of the wonderful company, the enemy of mediocre.>>”
We extend our gratitude to our dedicated teams and loyal clients for their contributions to this prosperous year. We look forward to taking on new challenges alongside you.
