What our clients
actually say

Anonymised by client request, but verifiable under NDA. Reference calls available to qualified institutional prospects.

Their team navigated FIPPA, free-zone licensing, and our local banking setup in under 11 weeks. We came in skeptical about Iran market entry — we left with an operational subsidiary.

How we measure trust

Verifiable references, not anonymous quotes

All testimonials are from active or recently-concluded mandates. We can put qualified institutional prospects in direct touch with referees under a mutual NDA — typically within three business days.

Verifiable

Every quote on this page corresponds to a real engagement. We can introduce qualified prospects to the referee under NDA.

Recent

No testimonial older than 36 months stays on the page. The advisory landscape changes — so should our social proof.

Specific

We avoid generic "great service" quotes. Each testimonial cites a measurable outcome: timeline, structure, capital deployed.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I speak to a current client?+

Yes. After a discovery call and signed mutual NDA, we will arrange 2-3 reference calls with clients in your sector, typically within 5 business days.

Why are testimonials anonymised?+

Many clients require us to keep their Iran activity confidential due to their home-jurisdiction compliance posture. Sector and deal size are disclosed; names are shared under NDA.

Do you have public references?+

For media-published mandates (project finance, large M&A), we can point to public coverage. Most institutional clients prefer NDA-based references.
