Luxury & Cosmetics

Our Approach

Eight Advisory, along with Eight International correspondents in Italy and the United States, advises leading companies in the luxury goods and cosmetics industries. Every year, Eight Advisory’s experts handle ca. 30 to 50 critical assignments, including due diligence, financial valuation, and transformation projects specifically within the Luxury & Cosmetics sector. These comprehensive engagements enable our clients to navigate complex transactions, optimise tax strategies, and implement successful restructurings with confidence.

Our Approach Emphasises:

• Rigorous Due Diligence: We offer thorough due diligence services for luxury and cosmetic brands, meticulously examining financial, legal, and operational aspects of transactions. This reduces risks and facilitates informed decision-making.

• In-Depth Financial Valuations: Our team employs fully adapted methodologies and extensive market expertise to provide accurate and robust financial valuations, essential for transactions, brand valuations, tax planning, and restructuring strategies.

• Seamless Transformation Expertise: Beyond valuations, Eight Advisory supports clients through the entire transformation process, assisting them in navigating complex transactions, optimising tax structures, and implementing successful restructurings.
