Spring Associates has a proven track record in value creation by ESG integration, pioneering its adoption within private equity and portfolio companies. From strategic advice to expertise in regulations such as CSRD, EU Taxonomy, and SFDR, we ensure ESG becomes an integral part of policies and processes. We support financial institutions, ventures, and mid-market to large corporations across various sectors and investment focuses.
We support companies and financial institutions that find themselves confronted with fundamental choices. Our consultants can help them to get a clear vision on future developments and (re)define their roles. Together with our clients these insights are translated into sharper strategies, clearer positionings, bankable business plans and design of future proof organisations. We can support our clients with the next steps; acquisition or partnerships trajectories and development of new products and services.
We guide clients through the evolving sustainability regulatory landscape, including CSRD, SFDR, and EU Taxonomy compliance. We provide implementation support for initiatives such as CO₂ monitoring, transition plans, resilience scenarios, and policy development. Leveraging our collective’s proven templates and focusing on opportunities, we deliver tailored, value-adding solutions effectively.
We support buy- and sell-side transactions at every stage, from business plan creation and market assessments to commercial or ESG due diligence, operational evaluations, and deal execution. While our commercial and operational expertise spans industries such as energy, cleantech, and food & agriculture, we bring industry-agnostic knowledge on ESG.
We help investors achieve operational excellence in their portfolio companies with a hands-on approach. Our consultants’ experience covers restructuring, with a focus on reducing cost and working capital; growth, with a focus on extending capacity and driving the capex agenda; and ESG / responsible investment, with a focus on the social and sustainability elements of the operations strategy.
