CRM for Investment Banking

We keep your deal teams at their A-Game by automating manual work and surfacing intelligence that drives every pitch, buyer list, and negotiation.

Who Knows What
In investment banking, the right connection can be the difference between winning and losing a deal. Navatar captures every relationship, meeting note, and email across your firm, then reveals who holds the most relevant insights, who has history with the client, and where relationships stand.
No chasing colleagues for updates, no inbox searches—just an instant, deal-ready view of your firm’s collective knowledge to fuel pitches and negotiations.
Cross Border M&A
Cross-border mandates add layers of complexity—from managing multi-jurisdiction regulations to coordinating teams across time zones. Navatar consolidates every touchpoint, buyer, seller, and advisory relationship into one global view, so your deal team can act with precision.
It tracks relationships across continents, flags local market changes, and keeps you ahead of compliance and cultural nuances—helping you win mandates in both domestic and multi-region transactions.
Events
You must have access to all relevant intelligence on the go in order to keep your all your interactions focused. In addition, all new relationships as well as additional information from each interaction at the event must add to your actionable intelligence. Navatar’s automated intelligence engine helps you maximize your event participation to make sure every bit of information adds to your sourcing efforts.
Needle in a Haystack
Even if you can somehow get data in, finding what you need is never easy in most CRM systems. You must be able to search a topic, casting a wide net that can find all relevant intelligence at the most detailed level, which could be the odd sentence from paragraphs of information. Navatar enables you to fine-tune granular searches even further and then channel results into editable work-streams, making them actionable and collaborative.
