Gordian Group is a leading national investment bank specializing in financial restructurings, complex and/or "story" financings and distressed/stressed/complex M&A assignments. Gordian is consistently named one of the leading investment banks in financial restructurings by The Deal and Turnarounds & Workouts, and The M&A Advisor named Gordian "Boutique Investment Bank of the Year" for 2016 (for the fifth time in seven years). Our lead partners are also the authors of the definitive works in the field, the recently published Distressed Investment Banking: To the Abyss and Back – 2nd Edition, Beard Books, 2015; Equity Holders Under Siege: Strategies and Tactics for Distressed Businesses, Beard Books LLC, 2014 and Distressed Investment Banking: To the Abyss and Back, Beard Books. All books are “must-read” for boards of directors, management teams and shareholders and/or owners of financially stressed situations, as well as for buyers and professionals. For 30 years, the firm has successfully completed more than 300 engagements, focused on representing companies, boards of directors, private equity firms and entrepreneurs in maximizing equity value. We are able to aggressively and creatively focus on advising companies, boards of directors and equity holders (including entrepreneurs and private equity firms) by avoiding conflicts of interest. As a matter of policy we avoid bondholder representations. Eliminating these conflicts of interest gives us a unique ability to pursue our clients’ goals with vigor and success.
