emerging economies, emerging opportunities

Companies in emerging markets face an array of complex issues: the rapid effects of glo-

capital flight as local companies seek to plant their flag in the global economy, the scramble

to identify and purchase attractively priced assets, and more.

RJI Capital provides business strategy and financial advisory services that help multinational

companies, local corporations, and state-owned enterprises in emerging markets maximize

the opportunities presented to them. Working at the highest leadership and management

levels, we help answer questions faced by companies seeking to grow in this particularly

rigorous analyses of markets, potential customers and competitors, and technologies.

Results drive the formation of value-maximizing strategies and recommendations that

improve company operations.

For financial advisory mandates, we deploy our international and local team of financial

experts and advisors. Our principals and local team have vast experience in the emerging

markets and are experts at structuring and completing transactions in the energy, telecom-

munications, transportation, real estate and aviation industries.
