Who We Are
Sivel Consulting
Sivel Consulting is a Hong Kong-based specialist consultancy serving select partners and private investment vehicles. Our team comprises former operators, investment analysts and sector specialists who have worked across emerging markets, philanthropic foundations and commercial ventures. We understand the mechanics of capital deployment because we have built, funded and audited these structures ourselves.
We established our practice in Hong Kong to position ourselves at the nexus of Asian private capital and global opportunity. The city’s concentration of sophisticated wealth structures demands advisors who can operate with discretion, rigour and speed. Sivel Consulting delivers all three with ease.
Our Philosophy
Evidence Over Opinion
If the data doesn't support the thesis, we do not advance it.
We reject the traditional consultancy model of presenting polished decks with generic frameworks. Every recommendation we make is anchored in primary research: interviews with regulatory bodies, pricing analysis from actual market participants and financial modelling stress-tested against worst-case scenarios.
Integration, Not Isolation
We operate as an embedded resource inside standard operations.
Our engagements begin with understanding your existing team’s capabilities, decision-making structures and risk thresholds. We slot into gaps and work alongside your trusted advisors – whether that is conducting ground-level research your principals lack time to oversee or providing specialist knowledge your generalist advisors cannot access.
Commercial Discipline Across All Mandates
At Sivel Consulting, we apply identical analytical standards across all services.
A charitable foundation requires the same scrutiny as a portfolio company: robust governance, transparent reporting mechanisms and verifiable operational capacity. We treat impact as measurable and donations as capital that must be deployed with precision.
How We Work
Sivel Consulting engagements typically fall into three categories:
Validating decisions you are preparing to make
Researching opportunities you are considering
Executing a project your team lacks bandwidth to manage
We begin every mandate with a scoping exercise to define success criteria and timelines. We then assign a dedicated project lead who maintains direct communication with your principal or senior advisor. Our deliverables are concise, actionable and designed to inform a binary decision: proceed or withdraw.
We do not bill by retainer or inflate scope to extend timelines. Each project is costed transparently and concluded when the objective is achieved.
