Maxit Capital is a leading independent investment and merchant bank offering a full range of financial advisory services to global corporate and institutional clients. Our highly experienced team of professionals have a long track-record of success sourcing and executing some of the largest and most complex transactions in the natural resources industry. We build long-standing partnerships with our clients by providing them with trusted advice that is aligned with their strategic objectives, and not impaired or influenced by conflicts of interest.
Founded in 2013, Maxit Capital was formed in response to the changing financial landscape. Since the 2008 financial crisis, specialized boutiques have become preferred by corporate and institutional clients, favoured for specialist knowledge and independence. Real conflicts of interest have severely undermined confidence in the integrated banks to provide trusted, unbiased advice. Maxit Capital was created to fill that void.
At Maxit Capital, we champion a client-centric focus, strong intellectual capital and superior execution. Our guiding principles are the foundation of our firm and will be the key to our continued success. Our approach is simple:
Long-Term Relationships. Our one and only priority is the needs and interests of our clients. We take the steadfast approach of consistently providing unparalleled client service to build enduring relationships of trust and confidence. While many firms measure success on a transactional basis, we take a much more protracted view.
Progressive Thinking. Innovation distinguishes leaders from followers. We thrive on the challenge of providing practical yet inventive solutions to help our clients grow and prosper.
Execution. Execution is the key to success. We continuously strive to pursue excellence and reject complacency.
Integrity. Confidentiality and independence. Two attributes we take very seriously at Maxit Capital. We are dedicated to delivering impartial advice in every circumstance to ensure we are securing the best outcome for our clients.
