Getting the Finance Team Right

A key role in any organization is that of CFO. Picking the right CFO can put a private equity deal on the fast track to success; keeping the wrong one can put performance in a rut. In this fascinating discussion, Robert Nolan of Halyard Capital; John Brittain of Tatum; and Lewis Raibley of Castle Harlan discuss the importance of quickly and accurately assessing the finance team in a private equity portfolio company and why many firms replace the CFO in half their deals. This series also includes an expert Q&A with James Dimitriou of Tatum, the series’ sponsor.
