Varrenyam, for the welfare of its clients, finds itself responsible to not just provide appropriate solutions to the clients, but also to ensure that they are executed accurately. It considers that its network of credible relations with banks, financial institutions and several other conventional and non conventional lenders & investors has enabled the company to grow manifolds over the last decade. Among its achievements, the company counts its ability to emerge as a leading consultant for mergers & acquisitions. Besides, the management team at Varrenyam considers that its integral values have accelerated its growth since its inception. Varrenyam Consultants’ journey so far has been compelling and filled with challenges. During the initial phase, the public sector consultants brought tough competition for them. However, their cost-effectiveness, practical approach and result oriented approach made them beat the competition and emerge as a leading name in the financial sector. Discussing the competition, Vandana says, “Our competition motivates us to do even better. Competition always makes one realise their mistakes and improve.” When asked about the goals for future, she adds, “We see more opportunities coming our way under mergers & acquisitions and fund raising segments as the economy is expected to grow.” Varrenyam with its established credentials, collaboration (technical and legal), and focussed approach is geared up to reach the next level.
