Frequently asked
The questions we answer most often. If yours is not here, ask it directly — we would rather reply than have you guess.
We work with companies, funds and professional investors. D.A.T.E. is not a retail investment firm and does not manage money on behalf of private clients.
No — and for what we do, no licence is required. The company invests its own capital and provides corporate advisory services. We do not hold client assets, do not manage third-party portfolios and do not offer securities to the public. Anything that does require a licence is carried out together with regulated partners.
As a rule we take on advisory mandates from €5 million in transaction value. Smaller projects are considered where the sector or geography is a particularly close fit — it is worth asking.
Cyprus and the wider European Union, and other countries around the world. Beyond our home markets we work through established local partners.
Typically a fixed retainer covering the working phase, plus a success fee tied to completion. For clearly defined scopes we quote a single fixed fee. Terms are always agreed in writing before work begins, and nothing is charged during the initial assessment.
Always — before we receive any commercially sensitive material. We are happy to work with your form of agreement or to provide ours.
A short description of the business or project, the sector and geography, an indicative size and your expected timeline. Detailed documentation is only needed once an NDA is in place.
How we work
Every mandate follows the same four stages. Timings are indicative — the scale of the transaction sets the pace — but the sequence does not change.
You outline the mandate through the form below or by email. We reply personally, confirm whether it falls within our remit, and sign an NDA before any materials change hands.
We review the documentation, assess feasibility, and set out scope, timeline and commercial terms in a written proposal. Nothing is charged up to this point.
Financial, legal and technical review alongside our advisers. Valuation, deal structure and negotiating strategy are agreed with you before any counterparty is approached.
Negotiation, documentation and closing — followed by post-transaction support where the mandate calls for it.
