Consilium Chartered Accountants has provided financial due diligence (FDD) services to ThinCats Group as part of the sale of Dot Surveying Limited to an employee ownership trust (EOT), which was facilitated by investment from ThinCats.
Edinburgh-based Dot Surveying is a multi-disciplinary property surveying consultancy with locations across the UK including London, Birmingham, Belfast, Leeds and Glasgow.
ThinCats are a specialist provider of bespoke funding solutions for mid-sized UK SMEs and offer access to funding across a variety of sectors.
The firm was chosen due to its “extensive” experience in both FDD and EOTs. Linzi Wilson and Colin McCrann from Consilium’s corporate finance team worked alongside ThinCats’ team of Ben Kimball, Richard Newman and Anna O’Neill.
Richard Newman, senior director at ThinCats, said: “Consilium continues to provide insightful and thorough financial due diligence services on behalf of ThinCats. Linzi and the team play an integral role in our lending and investment projects.”
Linzi Wilson, corporate finance partner at Consilium, added: “It is always a pleasure to work with the ThinCats team and on this project in particular. We are excited to see Dot Surveying continue to grow under employee ownership.
“Increasingly, Consilium is being engaged by SME owners to support the move to this model of ownership.”
Glasgow-based Consilium is made up of independent accountants and business advisors that provide a comprehensive range of corporate finance, audit, accounting, tax, cloud accounting, and payroll services to Scottish SMEs.
