About us
Lindenaar & Co was founded in 2005 by Paul Lindenaar as an alternative to the corporate finance departments of banks and accountancy firms. We have now grown to a leading independent corporate finance boutique in the Netherlands, with an extensive track record of national and cross-border transactions.
We predominantly advise entrepreneurs, family-owned business and private equity firms, as well as other stakeholders, such as works councils, on mergers, acquisitions and debt financing.

Through our focus on long-term relationships in combination with our pro-active market approach, Lindenaar & Co expects to continue to grow in the coming years.
