Søren Nørbjerg

I have worked in M&A since the 1990s when the discipline was still in its very beginning and have been a part of Clearwater's journey from a small start-up to the position we hold today. The many years of advising have taught me that no two transactions are the same and that it is essential to be able to immerse in our clients' reality to understand their business and their visions for the future. Besides my role in Clearwater, I practice my great passion for wine as co-owner and manager of a vineyard in Bourgogne.

Acquisition modelling: elevating strategic conversations with a credible financial model

Giulia Dupuis

I joined the Debt Advisory team at Clearwater in October 2023 and focused on advising companies across a wide range of sectors as well as private equity firms on diverse financing projects. Prior to this, I worked for four years in the investment banking division of UniCredit as part of the Acquisition and Corporate Structured Finance team. I hold a Grande École degree (Master in Management) from ESCP Business School in Paris, and a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science from the University of Rome, where I grew up. Outside of work, I enjoy immersing myself in modern art, savouring the diversity of French and Italian cuisine and wines or exploring new destinations around the world.

Fraser Tidman

I joined Clearwater in 2022, having held a number of talent, L&D, and generalist HR roles, both in the UK and globally. As International Talent Director, my role is focused on ensuring the business provides outstanding career development opportunities and continues to be a great place to work. We hold inclusion, diversity, equity, belonging, and the well-being of colleagues at our core.

Emmanuel Xerri

I founded the Clearwater team in Marseilles over 20 years ago. The Mediterranean region has many up-and-coming businesses which we are ideally placed to advise given our close proximity. I started my career in the corporate finance department of PwC and then joined EY. Following this I co-developed the activities of Edmond de Rothschild in Marseille for five years. Over the years, I have supported small and medium-sized companies that have sometimes become large corporations. The diversity of the transactions I have advised on makes me a generalist, or rather a multi-specialist across various sectors including business services, healthcare, industrials, specialised distribution, and TMT. More recently, I advised on the various build-up operations as well as the primary and secondary LBOs of the Cogepart Group, the French leader in last mile delivery. I also advised Hôpital Privée La Casamance on the merger with the Almaviva group and the entry of FrenchFood Capital into Markal, a major player in the organic food sector. Today, Clearwater International is ideally positioned to accompany clients through the increasingly rapid changes in the market, remaining adaptable and utilising our sector specialists in both our French and international teams to meet client goals.
