Olivier de Fougeroux is a born entrepreneur from a family of farmers. After a stint at Valeo, Peat Marwick and Heinz where he implemented his financial and team leadership skills, he decided at 26 to create his own structure (Business Risk Management) specialized in dematerialization and digitalization solutions for companies in the insurance sector. After joining ALTENOR in 2010 to cover the banking market, he sold his company to Orange Consulting and decided to embark on a new entrepreneurial project.
This approach led to the acquisition of the Finaxim group based in Paris and generating sales revenue of over €5 million in 2018. The core business of the company is to place business experts in timeshare, making it one of the industry leaders. The company has also developed an offer of interim management, recruitment, professional support, consulting and training.
The founding seller takes part in the transaction as part of a MBI.
Trianon CF has supported Olivier de Fougeroux throughout this process, from the screening and selection of targets in the hidden market by direct approach, to the analysis and valuation of the company, the drafting of a business plan, the structuring of financing, the presentation of the project to banks, the defense of his interests, and the coordination of all the parties involved in the transaction.
« I signed a mandate with Trianon CF in September 2018. I had been looking for 10 months and had just had a disappointment with a seller who had renounced the sale 2 days before signing the SPA. On this occasion, I saw the need for a very professional approach and realized that I needed an advisor on my side. Trianon CF largely met my expectations and enabled me to find the target, analyze the company, give pace to the negotiations and defend my interests… This takeover was completed in 10 months. » Olivier de Fougeroux
