Every deal is important and we fully understand the trust our valued clients place in Kluane Partners. That is why we are disciplined in everything we do. Driving greater efficiencies and ensuring the highest standards so we continue to surpass expectations.

Strategic Design

We look at every engagement individually – never using a templated approach but rather developing specific strategies that address your specific situation. Thinking outside the box while utilizing our extensive experience so we can deliver more.

“Kluane was brought in to deal with a distressed client. Their team were able to clean-up the story, mitigate our loss, and find another lender to buy our paper.“

DIRECTOR – PRIVATE EQUITY

“Kluane was able to help us with one of our difficult clients. They came in and provided accurate weekly reporting. Working with our client and Kluane we were able to wind-down our position successfully.”

SPECIAL LOANS – CANADIAN SCHEDULE 1 BANK

“My company was in a difficult situation with our lender. We missed multiple loan payments due to the economic climate. Kluane Partners helped us manage this relationship, bought us more time, and found us short-term financing to get through the difficult months. Would definitely recommend.”

OWNER/OPERATOR – TRUCKING COMPANY

“After running my family business for over 20 years I realized there was an opportunity to expand. I didn’t know how to navigate this transition, nor was my company prepared for growth. Kluane was able to help me develop a strategy, find me capital, and help with my internal accounting.”
