Mr. James cultivates a large and highly effective global network of contacts, enabling him to seamlessly provide end-to-end service across diverse, high-value sectors. His expertise spans a comprehensive range of asset classes and corporate transactions, including facilitating the acquisition and sale of specialized real estate assets globally, sourcing and brokering transactions involving rare art and high-value collectibles, handling the procurement and sale of private aircraft, and advising on the strategic acquisition and divestiture of private businesses and corporate holdings—a specialized form of M&A.

A key component of Mr. James’s service is his role as a trusted advisor and strategic facilitator. He recognizes that HNW clients, or their designated representatives, may not always have a clearly defined objective or a precise strategy for securing a desired asset. In these critical early stages, Mr. James steps in to provide diagnostic consultation, aid in clarifying objectives, and strategically source and vet potential assets on their behalf.

His involvement ensures that the entire process—from initial identification and valuation to complex negotiation, due diligence, and final closing—is managed with absolute precision. This deep level of facilitation is crucial in M&A scenarios, where he assists clients in identifying target businesses that strictly align with their long-term investment mandates, managing the delicate process of valuation, and ultimately ensuring the confidential and successful culmination of the acquisition.
