    WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY

    We view Cognos as a ‘force multiplier’ on several levels. When pitching new business, we can reach buyers and sources of capital globally; we can draw upon the intellectual capital of other Cognos member firms to compete for larger advisory assignments; and the growing integration of the Cognos member firms to address priority industry ‘verticals’ facilitates co-advisory mandates with our Cognos partners. - Jim Whitcomb, Managing Partner, Cognos USA
    In my opinion the Cognos network is a superb business development tool and at the same time an inspiring and supporting group of creative people. - Juan Capurro, Managing Partner, Cognos Spain
    We provide our clients with a unique offering in that they get all the benefits of working with a boutique firm (ie multiple partners in a single team providing senior capacity, coverage and market leading depth of experience) but through our membership of Cognos, we also provide genuine cross-border capabilities and international reach. - Andrew Thomson, Managing Partner, Cognos UK
    Since we joined Cognos our business centre of gravity has dramatically changed to cross border operations and the width and depth of the other members is now part of our development strategy. Last but not least, it also very pleasant to work with this nice bunch of seasoned corporate finance advisors. - Christophe Pothier, Founding Partner, Cognos France
