The Bullet Point Network Solution

Founded by Mike Ryan, former Co-Head of Global Equities at Goldman Sachs and Investment Committee member at the Harvard Endowment, BPN enables our clients to Quantify their Stories in Scenarios:

Attach research directly to the underlying strategic drivers of future financial results & exit multiples instead of losing it in thick memos or piles of emails & posts

Handicap odds for the future financial results & exit multiples that drive deal returns

Handicap odds of the outlier deal returns that drive fund return more than the "base case" return around which deal memos and spreadsheets are anchored

BPN Engagement Process

Clients share their insightful stories — like business plans, slide decks, and investment committee memos — with BPN’s world-class analyst team. Together, we employ our software Platform to produce an Interactive Strategic Model that Quantifies those Stories in Scenarios to drive better decisions.
