Adrian Saif

I joined Clearwater in October 2023, focussing on the Industrials & Chemicals sector, and have advised on a broad range of M&A transactions over my 12-year career in Investment Banking. Furthermore, my responsibilities include, amongst others, covering the Middle East region based i.a. on my professional experience in Saudi Arabia, and having worked on several DACH-MENA cross-border transactions. In my free time, I love to spend time with my family and to travel and immerse myself in different cultures and perspectives.

Phil Burns

I am Chair & Co-Founder at Clearwater responsible for overall leadership and strategy. I led the creation of the UK business, which we founded in 2003. We set up Clearwater because we saw the need for quality independent advice, delivered from a business with scale and a focus on excellent client outcomes. My career has spanned restructuring, banking, and corporate finance. I have worked on all kinds of deals - IPO's, Private Equity, cross border exits, carve-outs and have been advising clients for over 30 years, My favourite transactions are when we put entrepreneurs and private equity together, which I must have done more than 100 times by now.
