What We Do
Accordion is the go-to partner to the private equity community – driving value creation through financial consulting services and portfolio operations technology.
As the only firm focused exclusively within the Office of the CFO, our consultants work alongside Sponsor management teams to support initiatives across the entire finance function. While our engagements span all industries and sizes, our focus is consistent: flawless execution. We’ve channeled years of execution and insight into portfolio operations best practices to develop Maestro – the first technology platform designed to institutionalize a private equity firm’s approach to value creation.
To put it simply, we’re more than a consulting firm; we’re shaping a new era in private equity.
