CMG Consulta are familiar with a number of funding schemes that are available for Maltese businesses (self-employed, SMEs and larger businesses) to tap into in order to get assistance for specific investment or projects that they could be embarking on. The discussion on schemes sometimes sounds confusing and daunting and CMG Consulta firstly understand what the client’s business needs and objectives are before actually embarking on an investigation of what funding can be applicable to the client in question. In considering funding, it is important to consider that what is important to the business is the strategy, future plans and objectives and not the funding. This means that the driving force of all discussions needs to be the business needs and direction with the funding following on once these have been established. It does not make sense, for example, to simply initiation a discussion on funding purely to tap the funds without being driven by the business’ direction.

When business owners decide to exit the business and sell out, CMG Consulta help owners prepare the business for sale and even seek the purchasers. Selling a business is not as simple as placing a classified advert since there needs to be a process of defining what is for sale, what the required investor profile is and what the real value is to that investor profile.
