About EPS Investing
An independent advisory firm focused on corporate restructuring, capital raising and M&A, combining business leadership experience with practical implementation support.
Who We Are
EPS Investing works with business owners, shareholders and management to build business capabilities and align capital and ownership decisions with their development objectives.
Our services are organised around Corporate Restructuring Advisory and Capital Raising and M&A. We help businesses professionalize management, improve resource efficiency, prepare for growth and pursue suitable capital transactions.
Our approach brings together corporate finance, investment, governance and operating experience. We assess what a proposed change means for cash flow, people, decision-making and the resources available to implement it.
EPS operates with a lean team. Senior advisors work directly with clients, supported by analytical, coordination and specialist resources selected for the requirements of each engagement.
Strengthening Businesses. Unlocking Capital.
Understand the business. Define the priorities. Support execution.
EPS begins with the objectives of owners and management, assessing the strengths to build on and the capabilities to develop. Options are evaluated against the evidence, feasibility and contribution to the growth strategy.
We translate recommendations into actions, responsibilities and milestones. In restructuring implementation, EPS can combine data, automation and AI with advisor judgement to improve management information and follow through on decisions. For capital transactions, we support preparation, negotiation and execution within the agreed scope.
Our advice may be to proceed, adjust the approach or stop. The recommendation follows the evidence and the interests of the client we represent, with scope, deliverables and fees agreed before work begins.
Who We Work With
EPS works with businesses looking to expand, develop their management teams, prepare for succession or welcome investors, alongside shareholders seeking capital or a change in ownership.
We also support businesses and investors pursuing acquisitions in Vietnam, including the assessment of potential targets and the financial and commercial issues involved in a transaction.
An effective engagement requires access to relevant information, an identified decision-maker and a management team prepared to engage with the work needed to move forward.
How We Work with Clients
An engagement can begin with a diagnostic review, a readiness assessment or a specific decision. As priorities become clearer, EPS can support a defined project or a broader programme of implementation.
The two services can be engaged independently or together. Restructuring builds management, operating and financial information capabilities suited to growth or investment plans. EPS coordinates with the internal team and appointed specialists within an agreed scope.
Working Principles
Our work is organised around clear objectives, reliable information and responsibilities that the parties understand.
- Independent judgement: assess each option against the objectives and interests of the client we represent, without assuming that a particular transaction or course of action must proceed.
- Evidence-based advice: distinguish confirmed information from professional assessment and assumptions that still need to be tested.
- Practical implementation: consider the cash, people, time and management capacity needed to turn a recommendation into action.
- Clear accountability: agree on deliverables, responsibilities, milestones and communication arrangements, and keep material issues visible throughout the engagement.
When work requires specialist legal, tax, technical or sector expertise, EPS coordinates with appropriate professionals and defines their roles within the agreed scope.
Experience Behind Our Advice
The team brings experience from roles as CFO, CEO, Chair and Board Member, spanning financial management, governance, restructuring and operating performance. This background helps EPS connect advisory recommendations with the realities of running a business.

These figures describe their combined experience across those roles and include both transactions and projects.
